PREFACE. 


The  compiling  of  this  work  has  been  a  pleasure.  Every  moment 
that  has  been  spent  upon  it,  has  been  an  enjoyment.  The  task  how- 
ever has  been  no  easy  one,  obstacles  arose  at  the  start  which  seemed 
insurmountable.  The  first  one  hundred  years  of  the  Virginia  colony 
[1620— 1720]  as  far  as  family  history  was  concerned,  appeared  to  have 
passed  into  oblivion.  No  printed  work  was  found  which  threw  light 
upon  family  history  during  that  period.  Families  had  not  to  any 
extent  moved  from  original  homesteads,  the  generations  had  lived 
and  died  in  the  same  neighborhood,  and  each  generation  seemed  to 
have  borne  the  same  names,  of  William,  Thomas,  and  "Peter,  of  Eliz- 
abeth, Catherine  and  Frances.  It  seemed  impossible  to  separate  one 
from  the  other.  Even  when  all  the  records  of  all  the  counties  were 
in  hand,  it  was  found  impossible  to  form  from  them  a  connected  ped- 
igree. It  was  only  when  copies  of  the  few  vestry  books  of  Christ 
Church,  Middlesex,  were  used  in  connection  with  the  various  Co. 
records,  that  light  began  to  appear,  and  the  early  branches  began  to 
assume  the  places  they  occupy  in  this  work.  And  the  record  of  them 
here  given,  however  imperfect  it  may  be  considered,  can  only  be 
regarded  as  facts  snatched  from  the  very  verge  of  oblivion.  The 
church  records  that  have  been  saved  from  fire  and  war  are  few,  and 
it  has  been  impossible  in  some  cases  to  obtain  the  full  maiden  name 
of  the  wives  of  the  Montagues.  The  wills  on  Co.  records  give  only 
the  christian  name,  and  the  surname  is  in  some  cases  lost.  This  is 
to  be  regretted,  especially  in  the  case  of  Cicely,  the  wife  of  the 
emigrant  Peter  Montague. 

Printed  works  of  a  genealogical  character,  that  relate  to  Virginia 
families  appear  to  be  rare  ;  a  few  there  are,  which,  although  written 
for  other  objects,  contain  fragmentary  notices  of  family  history  :  of 
such  are  the  13  Vols,  of  Hening's  Va.  law  statutes,  and  Bishop 
Meades  old  churches  and  families  of  Va.    Both  of  these  works  have

PREFACE. 


been  carefully  collated  page  by  page  and  the  latter  extensively 
quoted  in  this  work.  A  more  recent  work,  and  by  far  the  best  ever 
published  is  "  Va.  Genealogies "  by  Rev.  Horace  Edwin  Hayden, 
Wilkes  Barre,  Pa.,  1891,  a  noble  work,  that  ought  to  be  in  the  library 
of  every  person  in  the  country  who  is  of  Va.  extraction,  or  interested 
in  her  people.  By  permission  of  Mr.  Hayden,  his  work  has  been 
quoted,  wherever  it  referred  to  any  person  in  these  pages;  and  has 
been  found  specially  valuable  on  the  line  of  the  Balls,  Daniel  and 
other  families.  The  origin  of  family  surnames  has  been  taken  from 
"  Patronimica  Britannica "  by  M.  A.  Lower,  a  standard  English 
authority.  The  blazon  of  ancient  coats  of  arms  is  principally  from 
Edmondson's  Heraldry,  also  a  standard  English  work.  The  record 
of  arrivals  by  ship,  and  early  emigrants  in  the  Va.  colony  is  from 
"  Hottens  Emigrant  Lists."  The  historical  account  of  the  early  set- 
tlements in  Va.,  is  taken  from  various  authors  and  from  Hists.  of  Va. 
both  English  and  American. 

The  Introduction,  and  also  all  that  relates  to  different  families  in 
this  work  in  ancient  times  in  England,  has  been  compiled  from  many 
hundred  old,  and  rare  books,  and  is  the  result  of  great  labor  cover- 
ing years  of  time  and  search.  With  the  exception  of  the  name  of 
Montague,  perhaps  no  name  occurs  so  often  in  this  book  as  the  name 
of  Latane'.  The  mode  of  spelling  used,  is  from  the  signature  of 
Rev.  Lewis  Latane  to  his  last  will  and  testament,  and  the  same 
spelling  is  used  by  Bishop  Meade  in  his  "  old  families  of  Va."  The 
accent  is  upon  the  final  "e  "  which  has  the  sound  of  a.  The  name 
"  Currie  "  has  been  perpetuated,  in  many  branches,  and  descendants 
have  written  it,  both  "Curry"  and  "  Cirney." 

The  dates  of  birth  and  marriage  of  the  children  and  grand-children 
of  the  emigrant  Peter  Montague,  and  of  other  early  branches,  against 
which  is  the  word  "  about  "  are  only  approximate.  No  claim  is  made 
for  their  correctness  except  as  qualified  by  the  word  "  about."  Every 
possible  effort  has  been  made  to  avoid  error,  and  yet  no  doubt  errors 
willbefound.  A  portion  of  the  work  consists  of  ground  never  before 
gone  over  with  no  guide  except  Co.  records,  and  but  few  of  them. 
Sources  from  which  to  seek  information  were  few  and  uncertain. 
Parties  written  to  were,  in  some  cases  slow  to  reply  ;  and  the  replies 
of  different  members  of  the  same  branch  were  sometimes  contradic- 
tory. Those  who  discover  errors,  while  they  criticize,  should  remem- 
ber that  if  the  work  serves  no  other  purpose,  it  will  be  a  foundation

who  may  issue  a  second  and  more  perfect  edition,  and  correct  the 
errors  made  in  this. 

Many  thanks  are  due  to  all  those  who  aided  the  compiler  by  send- 
ing valuable  records  and  other  information.  It  is  found  that  they 
are  too  numerous  for  special  mention  by  name,  but  particular  mention 
should  be  made  in  this  connection  of  Hon.  Wm.  M.  Flanagan  [699], 
Miss  M.  Ellen  Brown  [241 1],  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Paul  Caine  [3376].  Mr. 
and  Mrs.  Robert  Daniel  and  family  [1103],  the  venerable  Judge  B. 
J.  Peters,  Judge  of  the  court  of  Appeals.  Mount  Sterling.  Ky.  and 
Rev.  Horace  Edwin  Harden  of  Wilkes  Barre,  Pa.,  the  latter  of  whom 
has  been  a  faithful  friend  during  its  entire  compilation.  Special 
thanks  are  tendered  to  all  those  who  so  nobly  responded  to  the  call 
for  a  fund  in  advance,  to  aid  its  publication,  without  which  it  could 
not  have  been  issued.  Many  thanks  are  hereby  tendered  to  all  those 
who  have  furnished  the  beautiful  portraits  with  which  the  work  is 
embellished,  and  to  the  artists  who  made  them  Mr.  W.  P.  Allen  of 
Gardner,  Mass..  and  the  Suffolk  Engraving  Co.  of  Boston.  Special 
thanks  are  due  the  venerable  Dr.  J.  Packard.  D.  D..  of  Theological 
seminary,  Fairfax  Co..  Va..  for  records  of  ancient  Christ  Church. 
Special  thanks  are  due  the  carious  Co.  clerks  for  Court  House  records 
and  prompt  attention  to  letters  sent  to  them,  of  whom,  special  men- 
tion should  be  made,  of  Mr.  Harrison  South  worth  of  Essex,  Mr. 
Samuel  P.  Gresham  of  Lancaster  and  Mr.  B.  B.  Chowning  of  Mid- 
dlesex, who  generously  gave  both  his  office  room,  and  his  own  time, 
for  my  use  and  benefit.  Special  thanks  are  tendered  to  Dr.  Edmund 
J.  Lee  of  Philadelphia,  Pa..  Mr.  R.  B.  Lee  of  Richmond  and  Mr.  J. 
Henry  Lea  of  Fairhaven,Mass.  for  valuable  Lee  records.  The  descend- 
ants of  Mickelborough  Montague,  Xo.  58  in  this  work  was  compiled 
by  his  grandson  Mr.  A.  M.  McClenny  in  1884  and  was  published  in 
1886  in  the  work  called  "  The  Montague  Family  of  America."  It 
has  been  revised  and  brought  down  to  date  for  this  work,  as  perfectly 
as  has  been  possible. 

Finally,  the  compiler  wishes  to  express  his  thanks  to  Messrs.  Car- 
penter &  Morehouse  and  their  corps  of  able  assistants,  who  printed 
the  work,  all  of  whom  seemed  to  be  inspired  with  an  interest  in  the 
undertaking  almost  equal  to  that  of  the  compiler  himself.

EXPLANATION. 


The  index  refers  to  the  numbers,  not  to  the  pages.  Thus,  against 
the  name  of  Joseph  S.  Montague  in  the  index  is  the  number  2658. 
Turn  to  small  number  2658  in  the  book  and  it  will  be  seen  that  he 
was  the  son  of  Archibald  P.,  number  1253,  who  was  the  son  of  Sam- 
uel 396.  Turn  to  small  number  396  and  it  will  be  seen  that  Samuel 
396  was  the  son  of  Young  117,  who  was  the  son  of  Latane  34.  Now 
turn  to  small  number  34  and  it  will  be  seen  that  Latane  was  the  son 
of  Abraham  14  who  was  the  son  of  William  10.  Turn  to  small 
number  10  and  it  will  be  seen  that  William  was  the  son  of  Peter  4, 
who  was  the  son  of  Peter  No.  1.  By  following  this  plan,  any  name 
can  be  traced  forward,  or  back,  at  pleasure.  To  find  the  relationship 
existing  between  any  two  persons,  trace  the  line  of  each  back  until 
they  unite  at  the  same  ancestor.

EXPLANATION  OF  FRONTISPIECE. 


The  beautiful  plate  of  Arms  which  faces  the  title  page  is  a  copy  of  an  oil 
painting  in  original  colors  made  by  Tiffany  &  Co..  New  York  and  owned  by 
Mr.  Henry  Montague  Robertson  of  Xew  York  City,  who  kindly  permitted  it 
to  be  copied  for  this  work.  It  is  not  a  fancy  sketch  prepared  to  please  the 
eye,  but  it  is  the  correct  paternal  coat  of  arms  of  every  Montague  descended 
from  Peter  Xo.  i.  and  can  be  used  by  all  of  the  female  line  [or  collateral 
branches]  by  placing  it  as  a  quartering  only  upon  their  shield  to  indicate 
their  descent  from  Montague. 

The  word  blazon  in  Armory  means  a  written  description  so  precise  as  to 
enable  the  reader  to  depict  the  escutcheon  without  other  assistance.  The 
blazon  of  these  arms  is  as  follows  : 

Quarterly — first,  argent,  three  fusils  in  fess  gules  between  three  pellets,  for 
Peter  Montague,  Xo.  i  :  the  same  being  the  paternal  arms  of  his  father 
Peter  Montague  of  Boveney,  Eng.  Second— Azure,  a  griffin  segreant.  or. 
for  original  Montague  arms.  Thus  borne  by  the  first  eight  generations  in 
England  [A.  D.  1066  to  1300].  Third — Gules,  three  legs,  armed  properr 
with  banded  mail  of  the  13th  century,  conjoined  in  the  centre  at  the  upper 
part  of  the  thighs,  flexiden,  a  triangle,  garnished  and  spurred,  or.  for  Fergus, 
King  of  the  isle  of  Man.  These  arms  are  a  Heraldic  curiosity,  and  are 
inherited  by  Va.  Montagues  from  their  great  ancestress  Aufricia,  wife  of  Sir 
Simon  Montague  [Xo.  8.  in  Introduction]  and  dau.  of  Fergus,  King  of  Man. 
Fourth — Argent,  three  fusils  in  fess  gules,  for  Sir  Simon  Montague  of  A.  D. 
1300,  being  the  same  as  the  first  quarter  without  the  pellets  which  were  added 
for  difference  of  families.  The  combination  of  these  quarters,  as  here  rep- 
resented, is  well  known  and  is  not  new.  See  plate  of  the  coat  of  arms  of  the 
Duke  of  Manchester,  see  quarterings  of  Anthony  Browne,  Viscount  Montagu, 
and  quarterings  of  Hastings,  Earl  of  Huntingdon,  all  in  Edmondsons  Peerage. 
See  plate  of  Arms  of  Anne,  wife  of  King  Richard  III,  in  Blanche's  Pursui- 
vant of  Arms. 

Crest. — "  The  head  and  wings  erased  of  a  griffin,  segreant,  or.  placed  over 
the  helmet  of  an  Esquire."  From  the  shield  of  Drogo-de-Montacuto,  and 
dating  from  the  time  of  ^Yilliam  the  Conqueror,  also  similar  to  the  crest 
found  on  the  garter  plate  of  the  first  Earl  of  Salisbury.  It  is  the  most 
ancient  Montagu  crest  known. 

Supporters. — Xo  degree  below  that  of  a  Baron  was  in  England  entitled 
to  bear  Supporters,  and  although  Peter  Xo.  1.  was  descended  from  a  Baron. 


6 


EXPLANATION   OF  FRONTISPIECE. 


yet  it  was  through  younger  sons  and  Supporters  were  borne  only  by  titled 
elder  sons.  But  it  has  been  considered  appropriate  that  a  purely  American 
family  may  in  America  adopt  the  Segreant  griffin  of  their  first  English  ances- 
tor Drogo,  to  uphold  their  shield,  though  usually  if  the  sinister  Supporter  be 
a  griffin,  the  dexter  is  composed  of  some  other  device. 

Motto. — It  is  not  known  what  the  motto  of  the  Boveney  family  was ;  proba- 
bly the  family  flourished  in  England  at  so  early  a  date,  that  mottoshad  not 
come  into  general  use ;  but  it  may  be  said  that  "  Disponendo  me,  non  mutando 
me  "  dates  back  to  the  time  of  Henry  VIII,  and  is  the  most  ancient  of  all  the 
Montagu  mottos.  It  is  used  in  England  by  the  Dukes  of  Manchester,  and  is 
said  to  have  originated  with  Sir  Edward  Montagu,  the  executor  of  the  will  of 
Henry  VIII.  He  was  lord  chief  justice  of  England.  He  was  removed  from 
that  position  by  Queen  Mary,  who  also  imprisoned  him  in  the  Tower  of  Lon- 
don. After  his  release,  it  is  said  that  he  added  the  motto  to  his  Arms  in 
Latin,  a  free  translation  of  which  is,  "  You  may  displace  me  but  you  cannot 
change  me."

INTRODUCTION. 


Montagues  in  Great  Britain. 

In  the  old  Chronicles  of  France,  mention  is  made  of  forty-seven 
different  incursions  by  various  Scandinavian  bands  called  Northmen. 
The  most  important  of  these,  under  the  command  of  Rollo  the  Dane, 
resulted  in  the  permanent  occupation  of  a  large  province  which  was. 
subsequently  called  Normandy.  "  It  was  thus  the  settlement  of  these 
northern  pirates,"  says  Freeman,  "which  finally  ma<Je  Gaul  French 
in  the  modern  sense.  It  was  at  the  same  time  the  alliance  with 
Romanic  France  which  brought  the  Northmen  fully  under  the  influence: 
of  French  language,  law  and  custom,  which  made  them  Normans,  the 
foremost  Apostles  alike  of  French  chivalry  and  Latin  Christianity." 

In  this  province  and  of  this  people  was  born  on  the  14th  of  October 
1024,  William,  Duke  of  Normandy,  the  bold  leader  in  the  Norman 
conquest  of  England  "the  great  turning  point  in  the  history  of  the 
English  nation." 

In  this  province  also  flourished,  one  thousand  years  ago,  the 
Norman  family  of  Montagu.  They  were  seated  probably  at  Montagu- 
les-Bois  in  the  district  of  Coutances  of  which  place  it  was  said  "  Its 
ancient  lords  were  famous  in  the  middle  ages."  The  name  and 
family  of  Montagu  was  probably  prominent  and  distinguished  at  that 
time,  for  we  find  mountains,  castles,  fortresses  and  towns  bearing 
their  name. 

History  has  at  least  recorded  the  name  of  one  of  the  family  who 
held  at  that  time  an  important  position  of  trust  and  honor. 

I.  Drogo  de  Montagu  (or  as  it  was  written  in  Latin,  de  Monte- 
acuto,  and  Montaaite)  was  born  about  the  year  1040.  He  became 
the  trusted  companion,  follower,  and  intimate  friend  of  Robert,  earl 
of  Moriton  (or  Mortain),  the  favorite  brother  of  William,  Duke  of 
Normandy.

INTRODUCTION. 


Drogo  and  the  earl  of  Moriton  were  of  the  same  age  and  both 
entered  heartily  into  the  plans  of  William  in  his  proposed  expedition 
against  England. 

This  expedition  was  in  active  preparation  in  the  summer  of  1066 
and  was  composed  of  sixty  thousand  men  and  over  three  hundred 
ships.  Drogo  de  Monte-acuto  accompanied  the  expedition  in  the 
immediate  retinue  of  Robert,  Earl  of  Mortain. 

They  landed  at  Pevensey  upon  the  coast  of  Sussex,  late  in  Septem- 
ber, 1066,  and  immediately  burned  and  scuttled  their  ships,  that  their 
only  hope  might  lie  in  their  courage  and  resolution,  their  only  safety 
in  victory. 

This  marked  the  advent  of  the  first  Montague  upon  the  shores  of 
England,  and  as  he  marches  on  toward  the  plain  near  Hastings 
(where,  upon  the  14th  of  October,  the  battle  of  Hastings  was  fought 
and  won),  we  note  that  he  bears  the  kite  shaped  shield  of  the  Norman 
invador,  its  color  is  cerulean  blue,  and  upon  it  is  the  full  length  figure 
of  a  Griffin,  segreant  (rampant  with  wings  spread),  and  painted  a 
bright  golden  hue.  This  was  the  original  Coat  of  Arms  of  the 
Montagues  in  England.^ 

William  having  conquered  England  and  ascended  the  throne  his 
followers  were  rewarded  with  large  grants  of  land. 

Both  his  favorite  brother  the  Earl  of  Moriton  and  his  trusty 
follower  Drogo  de  Monte-acuto  received  large  possessions. 

Drogo  obtained  the  grant  of  several  Manors,  particularly  in  the 
county  of  Somerset.  The  original  castle  or  seat  of  Drogo  was  at 
Montacute,  an  eminence  and  parish  in  Tintinhull  Hundred,  Somer- 
setshire, four  miles  south  from  Ilchester.  Its  ancient  name  appears 
to  have  been  Logoresburg  and  was  also  called  Bishopston.  Here  the 
Earl  of  Mortain  built  a  castle  and  named  it  after  his  friend  Drogo  de 
Monte-acuto.    (Cappers  Topog.  Diet.). 

Camden  says  of  this  place  that  "the  Castle  has  been  quite 
destroyed  these  many  years  and  the  stones  carried  off  to  build  the 
Religious  houses  and  other  things,  afterward  on  the  very  top  of  the 
hill  was  a  Chapel  made  and  consecrated  to  St.  Michael,  the  arch  and 
roof  curiously  built  of  hard  stone  and  the  ascent  to  it  is  around  the 
mountain  up  stone  stairs  for  near  half  a  mile." 

*  A  gryphon  (or  griffin)  was  an  imaginary  animal  devised  by  the  ancients  and  consisted  of 
the  body  and  tail  of  a  lion  with  the  head  and  claws  (or  talons)  of  an  eagle,  thus  denoting 
great  strength  united  with  great  swiftness.

INTRODUCTION. 


A  later  writer  has  this  graphic  description  of  this  spot.  "Adjacent 
to  the  churchyard  rises  that  noble  mount  called  Montacute,  the  base 
of  which  contains  near  twenty  acres.  Its  form  is  conical  and  its 
ascent  very  steep,  the  top  terminating  in  a  fiat  of  half  an  acre  whereon 
stands  a  round  tower  sixty  feet  in  height  and  crowned  with  an  open 
ballustrade.  On  this  tower  is  a  flag-staff  fifty  feet  high,  on  which  a 
flag  is  occasionally  displayed  floating  fifty-six  yards  in  the  air  and 
exhibiting  a  grand  and  picturesque  appearance. 

The  summit  of  this  tower,  being  so  highly  elevated  above  the  level 
of  the  central  part  of  the  country,  affords  a  rich  and  extensive  pros- 
pect extending  westward  to  the  hills  below  Minehead  and  Blackdown 
in  Devonshire  and  north  eastward  over  Taunton,  Quantock  Hills, 
Bridgewater  bay,  the  Channel,  and  coast  of  Wales. 

To  the  north,  Brent-Knoll,  the  whole  range  of  Mendip,  the  city  of 
Wells  and  Glastonbury-Torr.  Eastward,  Creeche.  Southward  over 
the  Dorsetshire  Hills  to  Lamberts  Castle  near  Lyme,  the  whole  a 
circle  of  above  300  miles  in  which  on  a  clear  day  80  churches  are 
distinguished. 

This  hill  is  planted  from  bottom  to  top  with  oaks,  elms,  firs  and 
sycamores  the  intermingled  foliage  of  which  (especially  in  the 
autumnal  season)  forms  a  rich  and  beautifully  tinted  scenery." 

While  this  was  the  original  home  of  the  Montagues,  the  seat  of 
their  barony  was  at  Shepton  Montacute  a  villa  at  no  great  distance 
from  Montacute.  This  parish  contains  the  hamlets  of  upper  and 
lower  Shepton,*  Knolle,  and  Stoney  Stoke,  and  was  held  by  Drogo 
de  Monte-acuto  and  his  direct  descendants  until  the  time  of  King 
Henry  VIII.  when  Sir  Thomas  Montacute  leaving  no  male  issue, 
this  estate  was  divided  between  three  sisters. 

Drogo  de  Monte-acute  also  held  of  Robert  Earl  of  Moriton,  the 
following  Manors.  The  manor  of  Yarlinton.  (For  description  see 
at  Sir  Simon  Montacute,  8th  generation).  Sutton  Montacute,  a  small 
parish  six  miles  east  from  Ivelchester,  lying  in  a  fruitful  woody  vale 
under  the  south  west  brow  of  Cadbury  castle,  with  other  high  hills 
toward  the  east.  It  contains  thirty  houses  which  compose  a  long 
street  in  the  turnpike  road  from  Ivelchester  to  Castle  Cary. 

Thulbeer,  (ancient  name  Torlaberie). 

*  In  Drogo's  time,  in  demesne  are  two  carucates,  8  servants,  8  Villanes  (farmers),  5  cot- 
tagers, 3  ploughs,  2  mills,  one  not  rated,  the  other  pays  seven  shillings  and  sixpence.  There 
are  30  acres  of  meadow,  and  wood  ten  furlongs  long  and  four  furlongs  broad.

INTRODUCTION. 


Drogo  held  this  manor  from  the  Earl  of  Moriton  and  it  descended 
through  a  long  line  of  ancestry  together  with  the  manor  of  Chidzoy, 
to  the  unfortunate  Edward,  son  of  George  Duke  of  Clarence. 

Drogo  also  held  of  the  said  Earl  one  hide*  of  land  in  Montagud  in 
this  county.  Reva  John  Collinson  says,  "it  is  altogether  probable 
that  the  Earl  of  Mortain — if  he  had  any  other  reason  than  that  of  a 
Latin  definition — imposed  on  his  demesnes  at  Bishopton(Logoresburg) 
the  appelation  of  Montagud  in  compliment  to  this  Drogo,  his  favorite 
and  confidential  friend." 

But  waving  this  matter,  we  find  the  said  Drogo-de-Monte-acuto  in 
possession  of  these  estates  until  his  death,  which  took  place  about 
the  latter  end  of  the  reign  of  King  Henry  I.  (about  1125). 

A  curious  fact  may  be  here  recorded,  that  upon  the  spot  where  the 
battle  of  Hastings  was  fought,  William  the  Conqueror  founded  an 
Abbey  which  was  called  Battle  Abbey,  and  in  the  words  of  his 
charter,  "Instituted  a  market  to  be  kept  there  on  the  Lord's  day  free 
from  all  toll — "  and  that  Anthony  Viscount  Mountague,  a  lineal 
descendant  of  Drogo,  about  the  year  1575  or  1600,  built  a  fine  house 
there  and  obtained  authority  of  Parliament  to  have  the  market 
changed  to  another  day. 

Drogo  was  succeeded  by  his  son  and  heir — 

II.  William  Montacute,  who  erected  a  Monastery  at  Montacute 
Mountain  and  endowed  it  with  the  borough  and  Market  of  Montacute. 
An  ancient  record  written  about  1538  states,  that — "  within  the  ruins 
of  the  Castle  at  Montacute  is  now  a  mean  house  for  a  farmer,  the 
town  hath  a  poor  market  and  is  builded  of  stone  as  commonly  all 
towns  thereabout  be" — (Leland's  Itinerary,  Vol.  1,  Oxford,  17 10.") 

But  little  is  known  with  regard  to  this  William  Montacute  except 
that,  one  author  says — "  he  was  an  only  son  " — and  that  he  took  care 
of  the  estate  left  him  by  his  father,  and  died  leaving  it  entire  to  an 
only  son. 

III.  Richard  de  Monteacuto,  probably  the  first  Richard 
Montague  who  ever  lived. 

It  is  recorded  of  him,  that  in  the  second  year  of  Henry  II.  (1156) 
he  paid  ^20  into  the  King's  exchequer  for  the  ancient  pleas;  and 


*  A  hide  of  land  was  supposed  to  consist  of  160  acres  and  was  made  up  of  the  following 
parts,  viz.— ten  acres  make  a  ferundel,  or  fardingdeal,  four  ferundels  make  a  yard  land,  and 
four  yard  lands  make  a  hide,  so  four  hides  it  is  said,  01-  640  acres,  make  a  Knight's  fee.

7th  of  Henry  II.  (1161)  upon  the  collection  of  the  scutage  then 
levied,  he  paid  20  marks  for  the  Knight's  fees  (a  yard  land  of  40 
acres  paid  two  shillings  and  sixpence  tax)  which  he  at  that  time  held, 
soon  after  which  he  died,  leaving  issue  his  son  Drue,  who  was  called 
"  Drogo  Juvenis  " — or  Young  Drue. 

IV.  Drue  de  Monteacuto,  upon  the  assessment  of  the  aid  for 
marrying  the  King's  daughter.  12th  Henry  II.  (1167)  certified  his 
Knight's  fees  to  be  in  number — nine,  a  half  and  a  third  part  of  the 
old  feosment  and  one  of  the  new*  (640  acres  made  a  Knight's  fee). 

He  married  Aliva,  dau.  of  Alan  Basset,  baron  of  Wiccomb  in 
County  of  Buckingham.  After  his  death  she  married  second,  Richard 
son  of  Gilbert  Talbot,  ancestor  to  the  Earls  of  Shrewsbury. 

His  eldest  son.  also  named  Drue,  died  during  his  father's  lifetime, 
he  married,  however,  and  left  two  sons. — John  and  William  de  Mon- 
tacute.  The  younger.  William,  had  no  male  issue,  and  but  two 
daughters,  namely,  Margaret,  married  to  William  de  Echingham  ;  and 
Isabel,  married  to  Thomas  de  Audhamf. 

The  elder  son,  John!,  was  seated  at  Marsh,  in  County  Buckingham, 
a  manor  situated  northwest  from  Alesbury  and  near  the  Oxford 

County  line — he  m.  Lucy  *  *  and  had  a  daughter  Katherine. 

who  married  Warine  Bassett. 

Drue  de  Monteacuto  and  his  wife  Aliva  (Basset)  had  an  only 
daughter  who  became  a  nun  at  Shaftsbury,  and  a  second  son. — 

V.  William  de'  .Montacute,  who  succeeded  to  the  barony, 
and  in  the  sixth  year  of  Richard  I.  (1196)  paid  £6-is-6d  for  his 
estates  in  the  County  of  Somerset  as  scutage  for  the  King's  ransom. 

He  was  sheriff  of  Dorsetshire  and  Somersetshire  in  the  sixth, 
seventh,  eighth  and  ninth  years  of  King  John  (1205— 1209)  ;  which 
fully  proves  his  importance  at  that  time,  when  none  but  persons  of 
the  greatest  rank  and  property  were  admitted  to  that  office.    For  the

Besides  1  fee  in  Dishcove  whereof  he  was,  unwarrantably  dispossessed  by  Henry  Lovel.  For 
all  which  fees,  14th  Henry  II. — (116S)  he  paid  10  marks.

first  of  these  years  he  had  under  him  Osbert,  the  clerk,  his  deputy. 
Being  one  of  the  great  barons  of  that  reign  who  stood  up  for  the 
liberties  of  their  country,  and  being  found  (17th  John)  in  arms  with 
the  rebellious  barons  against  the  King,  he  was  stripped  of  all  his  lands 
in  Counties  of  Somerset  and  Dorset,  which  were  seized  by  the  King 
and  given  to  Ralph  de  Ralegh.  He  died  18th  of  King  John  (12 18). 
He  married  Isabel,  dau.  of  *  *  #  *  and  left  an  only  son  and  heir 
who  succeeded  to  the  estate. 

VI.  William  Montacute.  This  son  recovered  all  of  the  lands 
which  his  father  had  lost.  But  in  the  17th  of  Henry  III.  (1233)  he 
also  had  his  lands  distrained  by  Virtue  of  the  King's  precept  for 
omitting  to  repair  to  Court  at  the  feast  of  Whitsuntide,  there  to  receive 
the  dignity  of  Knighthood,  as  was  required  by  law.  But  the  next 
year  on  doing  his  homage  be  was  by  the  Sheriff  of  Somerset  and 
Dorset  reinstated  in  his  possessions.  He  died  31st  of  Henry  III. 
(1247)  leaving  issue  William  his  son  and  heir. 

VII.  William  de  Montacute,  (son  of  William  No.  VI.),  had 
summons  to  attend  the  King  into  Gascony,  against  Alphonse  10th, 
King  of  Castile,  who  had  usurped  the  province.  The  41st  of  Henry 
III.  (1257)  he  was  summoned  to  be  with  the  King  at  Chester  on  the 
feast  day  of  St.  Peter,  ad  vinculo, — well  furnished  with  horse  and 
arms,  thence  to  march  against  Llewellin  ap  Griffith  prince  of  Wales. 
42 d  of  Henry  III.  he  had  a  similar  citation.  By  Berta  his  wife  he 
left  issue  his  son  and  heir,  Simon. 

VIII.  Sir  Simon  de  Montacute  (son  of  William  No.  VII.)  was 
in  several  expeditions  into  Whales,  particularly  in  that  of  10th  of 
Edward  I.  (1286)  when  Llewellen  lost  his  territory  and  life.  He 
obtained  from  Edward  I.  confirmation  of  the  manor  of  Shipton  Mon- 
tague in  Somersetshire  with  the  woods  thereunto  belonging  in  the 
forest  of  Selwood  and  a  grant  of  several  other  manors  in  the  same 
county  and  in  those  of  Dorset,  Devon,  and  Oxford. 

The  same  lord  Montacute  made  several  campaigns  with  reputation 
both  in  France  and  Scotland,  in  the  reign  of  Edwd  I.,  in  which  he 
was  also  Governor  of  Corffe  Castle  in  Devonshire.  In  the  Reign 
of  Edward  II.  he  again  served  in  Scotland  and  was  governor  of  the 
Castle  of  Beaumaris  in  the  isle  of  Anglesey,  and  Admiral  of  the 
King's  fleet.  In  that  reign  he  also  obtained  a  grant  for  a  weekly 
market  on  Tuesday  at  his  Manor  of  Yardlington,  County  of  Somer-

set,  and  a  fair  on  the  eve  day  and  morrow  after  the  Assumption  of 
the  Blessed  Virgin.  The  7th  of  Edwd  II.  (13 14)  he  obtained  a 
license  of  the  King  to  fortify  his  Manor  house  at  Yardlington.  This 
Manor  was  very  beautifully  situated  in  a  picturesque  locality  upon  a 
very  fine  lawn,  and  remained  in  this  family  through  many  descents 
until,  through  the  last  Countess  of  Salisbury  (who  was  beheaded  at 
the  age  of  70  years  by  Henry  VIII.),  it  passed  to  the  Poles  and 
thence  to  Henry  Stafford,  Duke  of  Buckingham.  Sir  Simon  Monta- 
cute  also  owned  the  Manor  of  Goat-hill,  granted  to  him  by  Edwd  I., 
and  it  descended  to  Gen.  Thomas  Montacute  4th  Earl  of  Salisbury, 
thence  to  Richard  Neville,  Earl  of  Warwick,  and  to  John  Neville, 
Marquis  of  Montacute.  He  also  owned  the  Manor  of  Laymore  in 
Somerset.  This  Sir  Simon  Montacute  bore  as  his  Coat  of  Arms  the 
original  shield  of  his  ancestor  Drogo  First,  (Azure — a  Gryphon 
Segreant,  or,  [gold]  as  also  did  his  father  and  each  of  his  ancestors. 

However,  this  Sir  Simon  changed  the  Arms  to  "  Argent  (white) 
three  fusils*  in  fess  gules  (red)."    See  plate. 

It  is  however  recorded  that  Sir  Simon  used  both  Coats  of  Arms, 
the  one  which  he  had  made  and  the  other  which  he  received  by 
inheritance.  Fortunately  we  are  not  left  in  doubt  as  to  what  Arms 
he  really  bore,  for  the  Pope  had  at  that  time  made  unwarranted 
pretentions  with  regard  to  Scotland  and  had  issued  an  insolent  bull, 
to  which  all  the  barons  of  England  had  made  reply  in  a  letter  which 
was  signed  by  all  the  Barons,  who  affixed  to  their  names,  as  their 
seals,  their  Coat  of  Arms.  This  letter  to  Pope'Boniface  VIII.  was 
written  A.  D.  130 1,  and  was  signed  by  Sir  Simon  de  Montacute,  with 
the  other  barons.  A  duplicate  of  this  letter  is  preserved  in  the 
British  Museum,  and  the  plate  of  the  Coat  of  Arms  of  Sir  Simon 
Montague,  appended  to  this  work,  is  copied  from  his  Seal  to  that 
letter.  These  Arms,  with  some  modification  for  differences  in  fami- 
lies, have  been  the  arms  of  all  the  succeeding  English  families  of 
Montague.  Sir  Simon  married  Aufricia,  dau.  of  Fergusius,  King  of 
the  isle  of  Man,  descended  from  Orry,  King  of  Denmark.  The  His- 
torian records  that  Aufricia,  dau.  of  Fergus,  King  of  Man,  having  fled 
to  King  Edward,  when  dispossessed  by  Alexander  III.  King  of  Scots, 
Edward  bestowed  her  in  marriage  upon  Simon  lord  Montague,  baron 
of  Shipton  Montague,  who  by  the  King's  assistance  recovered  the

Island  and  enjoyed  it  in  her  right  many  years.  (Camden  says  it  was 
-Simon's  son  William  who  recovered  the  Island.) 

He  had  been  summoned  to  parliament  from  the  28th  of  Edward  I. 
to  the  8th  of  Edwd  II.  (1315),  soon  after  which  he  died.  Their 
issue  was  William  and  Simon  de  Montacute,  the  former  succeeded 
his  father  and  continued  the  line,  the  latter  was  married  to  Hawise, 
daughter  of  Almeric  lord  St.  Amand. 

Almeric  de  St.  Amand  was  a  great  baron  of  that  age  whose  chief 
seat  was  at  Grendon  Underwood,  a  parish  in  the  hundred  of  Ashendon 
in  Buckinghamshire  ten  miles  west  N.  W.  from  Aylesbury.  The  male 
line  became  extinct  and  the  property  passed  (through  daughters)  to 
other  families.  It  would  seem  that  Simon  Montacute  and  Hawise  de 
St.  Amand,  his  wife,  probably  had  a  son  whose  name  was  William 
Montacute  from  the  following  passage  taken  from  a  very  rare  and 
ancient  work.#  "  From  thence  he  (the  King)  passeth  on  to  the 
Castle  of  Salisbury  which  Castle  belonged  to  William  Montacute 
Earl  of  Salisbury  in  right  of  his  wife  but  himself  being  then  prisoner 
in  France,  onely  his  Countesse,  and  ^one  William  Montacute,  a  cousin 
of  his  was  in  the  Castle."  This  William  Montacute,  who  is  called  a 
cousin  of  the  first  Earl  of  Salisbury,  was  therefore  a  son  of  Simon 
and  Hawise  (Amand)  Montacute,  as  it  is  recorded  that  the  Earl's 
father  had  only  two  sons.  As  this  Simon  Montacute  was  the 
younger  son,  his  subsequent  history  (and  that  of  his  son  William) 
is  unrecorded. 

IX.  William,  lord  of  Montacute,  eldest  son  of  Sir  Simon  de 
Montacute  (No.  VIII.),  served  in  several  expeditions  into  Scotland, 
both  before  and  after  his  father's  death,  in  the  reigns  of  Edward  I. 
and  II.  In  the  former  he  also  received  the  honor  of  Knighthood, 
along  with  Edward  prince  of  Wales ;  and  in  the  second  year  of  the 
latter,  he  obtained  the  royal  charter  for  free  warren  at  his  manor  of 
Aston  Clinton  in  Buckinghamshire,  as  he  did  afterward  for  those  of 
Saxlingham,  in  the  County  of  Norfolk,  Knolle  in  the  County  of  Som- 
erset, and  Woneford  in  the  County  of  Devon.  In  the  same  reign  he 
was  governor  of  Berhamstead  Castle  and  steward  of  the  King's

Moreover,  he  obtained  from  the  King  a  special  license  to  make  a 
Castle  of  his  house  at  Kersington  in  the  County  of  Oxford,  and  was 
appointed  Seneschal  of  the  duchy  of  Aquitain  and  at  last  in  13 18  of 
Gascony.  In  the  nth  and  12th  of  that  reign  he  had  summons  to 
parliament  and  died  in  1320  in  Gascony,  but  was  interred  at  St. 
Frideswide,  now  Christ  Church  Oxon.# 

By  Elizabeth,  dau.  of  Peter  lord  Montfort  of  Beaudefert  in  the 
County  of  Warwick,  he  had  issue  four  sons  and  seven  daughters.

second  succeeded  him,  Simon  the  3d  son  in  the  8th  of  Edward  III. 
was  made  Bishop  of  Worcester  and  in  1336  was  translated  to  Ely. 
He  was  a  great  benefactor  to  the  University  of  Cambridge  and  laid 
out  a  large  sum  on  the  fine  Lady  Chapel,  on  the  north  side  of  the 
Cathedral  of  Ely,  though  he  did  not  live  to  finish  it. 

Sir  Edward  Montacute,  the  4th  son,  was  governor  of  the  Castle  of 
Werk.  He  served  afterward  in  the  French  wars  with  great  reputation. 
In  the  23d  of  Edward  III.  (1330),  he  had  livery  of  all  those  lands 
which  descended  to  his  wife  Alice,  dau.  and  co-heir  of  Thomas 
Brotherton,  Earl  of  Norfolk,  fifth  son  of  Edward  I.,  and  Marshal  of 
England.    He  died  in  1342.

"  Alexander  III.,  King  of  Scots,  had  invaded  Man  also,  and  entirely  subdued  it,  and  set  a 
King  over  the  isle.  However,  Mary,  the  daughter  of  Reginald  King  of  Man,  addressed  her 
self  to  the  King  of  England  for  justice  in  her  case.  Answer  was  made  that  the  King  of  Scots 
was  then  possessed  of  the  Island  and  she  ought  to  apply  herself  to  him.  Her  grandchild, 
John  Waldebeof ,  notwithstanding  this,  sued  again  for  his  right  in  Parliament,  held  33d  of 
Edward  I.,  urging  it  there  before  the  King  of  England  as  Lord  Paramount  of  Scotland,  yet 
all  the  answer  he  could  have  was  that  he  might  prosecute  his  title  before  the  Justices  of  the 
King's  Bench  ;  let  it  be  heard  there  and  let  justice  be  done.  But  what  he  could  not  effect  by 
law  his  kinsman  Sir  William  Montacute  (for  he  was  of  the  royal  family  of  Man)  soon  did  by 
force  of  arms.  For  having  raised  a  body  of  English,  he  drove  the  Scots  out  of  the  Isle  with 
these  raw  soldiers.  But,  having  plunged  himself  into  debt  by  the  great  expense  of  this  war, 
and  become  insolvent,  he  was  forced  to  mortgage  the  Island  to  Anthony  Bee,  Bishop  of 
Durham  and  Patriarch  of  Jerusalem ;  and  make  over  all  the  profits  thereof  to  him  for  seven 
years,  and  quickly  after,  the  King  gave  the  Island  to  the  said  Anthony  for  term  of  life. 
Afterward  King  Edward  II.  gave  it  to  his  great  favorite  Peter  de  Gaveston.  Soon  after  this 
the  Scots  recovered  it  again  under  the  Conduct  of  Robert  Brus.  Afterward,  about  the  year 
1340,  William  Montacute,  the  younger  (Earl  of  Salisbury),  rescued  it  by  force  of  Arms  from 
the  Scots  and  in  the  year  of  our  Lord  1393  sold  Man,  and  the  Crown  thereof,  to  William 
Scrope  for  a  great  sum  of  money."— Camden's  Britannia.

INTRODUCTION. 


X.  William  Montacute,  eldest  surviving  son  of  William  lord 
Montague  (No.  IX.),  was  made  a  banneret  in  the  end  of  the  reign  of 
Edward  II.  In  the  first  of  Edward  III.  (1327)  he  was  present  at  the 
expedition  then  made  into  Scotland,  and  in  the  3d  of  same  reign 
attended  the  King  when  he  was  summoned  to  do  homage  to  the  King 
of  France  for  his  duchy  of  Aquitaine.  In  the  4th  year  of  same  reign 
he  again  attended  the  King  to  France,  and  had  also  the  honor  to 
wait  on  his  holiness  the  Pope  with  Bartholomew  de  Burgherth,  as 
Edward's  ambassador,  to  thank  him  for  confirming  a  bull  of  his 
predecessor  Honorius,  in  favor  of  the  Monks  of  Westminster.  But 
the  best  service,  perhaps,  which  this  brave  man  ever  performed  for 
his  master,  was  his  bringing  the  famous  Mortimer  Earl  of  March  the 
Queen's  gallant,  to  punishment.*  A  parliament  being  held  the  same 
year  it  was  enacted  that  William  lord  Montacute  and  all  others  with 
him,  at  the  apprehension  of  the  Earl  of  March  and  others,  since  what 
they  did  was  authorized  by  the  King's  command,  should  be — "wholly 
acquitted  thereof  and  of  all  murders  and  felonies  they  have  done." 
This  act  of  indemnity  was  not  only  passed  in  his  behalf,  but  many 
manors  and  lands  forfeited,  by  the  attainder  of  the  Earl  of  March 
and  others,  were  bestowed  upon  him. 

In  the  same  year  (1330)  he  was  also  appointed  governor  of  Sher- 
bourne  Castle  in  the  County  of  Dorset,  and  of  the  Castle  of  Corffe 
with  the  Chace  of  Purbeck. 

In  the  5th  of  Edward  III.  he  had  a  charter  of  free  warren  in  all 
his  lordships  of  Cookham  in  County  of  Berkshire,  Swyneston  in 
County  of  Southampton,  Fulmere  in  County  of  Bucks  and  of  Cat- 
sound  and  Lewisham  in  Kent.  Likewise  wreck,  waif,  stray  goods  of 
felons  and  fugitives,  with  fines  and  forfeitures  of  his  tenants  in  his 
manors  of  Christ-church,  Twyneham,  Ringwood,  and  Swyneston,  in 
the  Isle  of  Wight  and  County  of  Southampton.     Next  year  he 

*  The  lord  Montacute,  having  laid  before  the  young  King  the  infamy  which  the  course  of 
the  life  of  the  Queen,  his  mother,  had  brought  upon  his  family,  and  the  dangers  which  Mor- 
timer's greatness  threatened  to  the  Crown,  met  with  a  favorable  hearing  from  his  Majesty, 
who  ordered  him  to  associate  himself  with  such  of  the  nobility  as  he  could  trust,  and  then 
apply  to  Sir  William  Eland,  Constable  of  the  Castle  of  Nottingham,  in  which  the  Queen  and 
Mortimer  had  shut  themselves  up  for  defence.  As  the  Keys  of  the  Castle  were  brought  every 
night  to  the  Queen  and  nobody  permitted  to  come  in  or  go  out  without  her  knowledge,  Sir 
William  Eland  directed  Montacute  and  his  associates  to  a  private  passage,  by  which  they 
entered  the  Castle  and  marched  directly  to  Mortimer's  apartment,  where  the  lord  Montacute 
before  he  could  seize  his  prisoner,  was  forced  to  kill  Sir  Hugh  Turplington,  steward  of  the 
household,  and  Sir  John  Monmouth.  Mortimer  was  then  made  prisoner  and  carried  before 
the  King,  and  a  short  time  after  he  was  with  his  chief  friends  and  abettors  put  to  death.

obtained  for  John,  his  son-in-law.  a  grant  of  the  Castle  of  YVerk.  on 
condition  of  his  fortifying  it  and  keeping  it  in  repair ;  and  for  himself 
a  release  of  all  his  Majesty's  claim,  right  and  title,  in  the  isle  of  Man, 
and  its  appurtenances  for  him  and  his  heirs  forever.  In  1335  he 
was  constituted  governor  of  the  Isles  Guernsey,  Jersey,  Sark,  Alder- 
ney,  and  Seul.  In  1336  he  was  made  Constable  of  the  Tower  of 
London,  and  in  consideration  of  his  great  expenses  in  divers  services 
obtained  a  grant  of  the  forest  of  Selkirk  and  Ellerick.  with  the  town 
and  County  of  Selkirk  in  Scotland  to  hold  in  farm  to  him  and  his 
heirs.  In  the  same  year  he  also  obtained  a  grant  in  fee  of  several 
manors,  lands,  and  hundreds  lying  in  the  Counties  Somerset,  Dorset, 
Wilts,  and  Buckingham. 

In  1337  he  was  constituted  Admiral  of  the  King's  fleet,  from  the 
mouth  of  the  Thames  westward,  and  the  following  year  in  considera- 
tion of  his  faithful  services  in  the  Scottish  wars,  and  otherwise,  he 
was  advanced  to  the  title  and  dignity  of  Earl  of  Salisbury,  with  a 
grant  of  the  annual  rent  of  £20  out  of  the  profits  of  that  County. 

The  same  year  he  was  one  of  the  Commissioners  that  were  sent  to 
the  duke  of  Bavaria  to  engage  him  on  behalf  of  Edward  against 
Philip,  King  of  France.  Upon  his  return  he  was  immediately  joined 
with  Richard.  Earl  of  Arundel,  in  the  command  of  a  body  of  troops 
designed  for  Scotland,  in  consequence  of  which  he  was  present  at  the 
memorable  siege  of  the  Castle  of  Dunbar.  The  same  year  he 
attended  the  King  to  Brabant  and  obtained  several  more  grants  of 
lands,  castles,  fairs  and  advowsons  in  the  Counties  of  Oxford,  Wilts, 
Dorset,  Somerset,  Chester,  Xorfolk,  Suffolk  and  Lincoln. 

In  1339  he  obtained  the  King's  precept  to  the  lord  treasurer  and 
barons  of  the  exchequer  for  an  allowance  of  five  marks  each  day 
while  he  was  abroad  on  his  service,  and  for  the  reimbursement  of  all 
the  expenses  he  was  put  to  thereby.  The  same  year,  in  consideration 
of  his  services  both  in  the  field  and  cabinet,  he  obtained  a  grant  of 
the  office  of  Earl  Marshal  of  England. 

In  1340  he  had  the  command  of  the  army  jointly  with  the  Earl  of 
Suffolk.  These  two  commanders  having  laid  siege  to  Lisle,  then  in 
possession  of  the  French,  were  both  unfortunately  made  prisoners  by 
the  besieged,  who  sallied  out  and  drew  them  after  them  into  the  town. 
During  their  captivity  they  suffered  great  indignities  ;  and  upon  their 
arrival  at  Paris  would  certainly  have  been  put  to  death,  had  not  the 
King  of  Bohemia  (possibly  a  relative  of  his  wife)  interposed  in  their

INTRODUCTION. 


behalf.  Upon  a  conclusion  of  a  truce  with  France  they  were 
exchanged  for  the  Earl  of  Murray  and  ,£3000  in  addition. 

The  Earl  of  Salisbury,  immediately  after  his  release,  went  with 
many  other  English  Knights  into  Spain  and  joined  the  army  of 
Alphonsus  against  the  Saracens. 

In  1341  he  was  again  in  Flanders,  and  in  1342  in  France.  In  1343 
he  served  upon  the  borders  of  Scotland  with  the  Earl  of  Ulster.  And 
about  this  time  he  conquered  the  isle  of  Man,  when  King  Edward 
(having  before  given  him  the  inheritance  thereof)  crowned  him 
King  of  Man. 

In  conjunction  with  Robert  of  Artois,  he  had  the  command  of  the 
forces  sent  to  France  in  aid  of  the  Countess  of  Mountfort,  by  sea  and 
land;  where,  after  defeating  the  French  fleet,  they  took  Vannes,  but 
a  truce  having  been  concluded  for  three  years  the  Earl  returned  to 
England,  where  he  exercised  himself  so  immoderately,  in  justs  and 
tournaments,  that  he  fell  into  a  fever  of  which  he  died  in  the  forty- 
third  year  of  his  age,  January  30,  [344,  and  was  buried  at  the  White 
Friars  in  London*  (Vol.  1,  p.  51,  Edmondson's  Heraldry).  He  was 
possessed  at  his  death  of  a  vast  estate  and  bore  the  titles  of  Earl  of 
Salisbury,  King  of  Man,  and  lord  of  Denbigh. 

Vol.  1,  p.  51,  Glover's  ordinary  of  Arms,  Edmondson's  Heraldry, 
says,  this  earl  owned  Fulmere  in  Buckinghamshire.  Lipscombe's 
Hist,  of  Bucks  says,  he  sold  it,  in  or  before  1335.  This  was  a  hamlet 
and  Chapelry  of  Datchet  in  Stoke  Hund.  Bucks,  near  Stoke  Poges 
and  not  far  from  Boveney. 

This  great  man,  who  died  so  young  and  who  also  accomplished  so 
much  in  his  busy  career,  also  found  time  to  establish  at  Bisham  in 
Berkshire,  on  the  banks  of  the  Thames  4  miles  from  Maidenhead,  a 
Monastery,  and  he  also  founded  a  priory  (in  1338)  for  Canons  of 
the  order  of  St.  Augustine,  in  the  words  of  his  charter,  "  dedicated 
to  Our  Lord  and  the  Virgin."  This  priory  was  re-founded  by  Henry 
VIII.  for  an  abbot  and  13  Benedictine  Monks.     Here  Henry  VIII. 

*  Some  authors  state,  that  this  great  man  was  buried  at  Bisham  priory  which  he  had 
founded.  This  error  probably  was  caused  by  the  fact  that  his  son  built  a  magnificent  monu- 
ment to  his  memory,  in  that  Abbey,  which  was  however  demolished  by  Henry  VIII.  at  the 
dissolution.  Not  only  Edmondson's  Heraldry  but  Glover's  Ordinary  of  Arms,  and  also  the 
very  high  authority  of  Dugdale,  assert  that  he  was  buried  at  White  Friars,  London.  Ed- 
mondson's Heraldry,  Vol.  i,  51,  states  that  he  became  21  years  old  in  the  19th  of  Edward  II., 
which  would  place  his  birth  A.  D.  1304;  the  same  authority  also  states,  that  he  owned  the 
Manor  of  Cookham  in  Berkshire.  Lipscombe's  Bucks  states  that  the  hamlet  of  Boveney 
anciently  belonged  to  Cookham  in  Berkshire,  and  the  inference  is  that  this  Earl  of  Salisbury 
may  have  been  possessed  of  Boveney  also.

Here  William  Montacute.  the  2d  Earl  of  Salisbury  (son  of  the 
founder),  was  interred.  By  his  will  he  directed  that  a  monument 
should  there  be  erected  to  the  memory  of  his  father,  which  was  done 
upon  a  magnificent  scale.*

INTRODUCTION. 


XI.  William  Montacute,  second  Earl  of  Salisbury,  eldest  son 
of  William  the  first  Earl,  was  born  in  June,  1328.  Before  he  was  of 
age  he  was  Knighted  when  Edward  landed  at  La  Hague.  He  after- 
ward served  at  the  siege  of  Caen,  and  at  the  glorious  battle  of  Crecy. 
When  the  Order  of  the  Garter  was  instituted  he  was  the  seventh  of 
its  original  knights,  and  when  the  Black  Prince  obtained  Aquitaine 
he  attended  him  to  France  and  served  under  him  in  all  his  excursions 
and  expeditions.  At  the  battle  of  Poitiers  he  commanded  the  rear 
of  the  English  army,  and  was  highly  instrumental  in  gaining  that 
famous  victory.  In  short,  almost  his  whole  life  was  a  perpetual 
campaign  under  Edward  III.  and  his  son,  the  Black  Prince. 

In  the  succeeding  reign,  he  was  continued  in  all  his  posts  and 
preferments,  and  also  made  governor  of  Calais,  whence  he  harrassed 
the  French  with  continual  excursions.  In  the  fifth  of  that  reign  he 
convoyed  to  England  the  King's  intended  Consort,  daughter  of 
Charles,  King  of  the  Romans,  and  in  the  seventh  and  eighth  he 
served  against  the  Scots.  In  the  ninth,  a  grant  was  made  to  him 
during  life,  of  the  custody  of  the  Isle  of  Wight  and  Castle  of  Caris- 
brook.  In  the  twentieth,  the  year  1397,  he  departed  this  life,  having 
ordered  by  his  will,  that  every  day  until  his  corpse  should  be  interred 
at  Bisham,  distribution  should  be  made  of  one  pound  five  shillings 
to  three  hundred  poor  people ;  likewise  that  twenty  poor  men  should 
bear  torches  on  the  day  of  his  funeral,  each  torch  eight  pounds 
weight,  and  each  of  them  wearing  a  gown  of  black  cloth  with  a  red 
hood ;  also,  that  there  should  be  nine  wax  lights  about  his  corpse, 
and  upon  every  pillar  of  the  church  there  should  be  fixed  banners  of 
his  arms  ;  moreover  that  ^"30  should  be  given  to  the  religious,  to 
sing  trentals  and  pray  for  his  soul. 

He  first  married  Joan,  who  by  way  of  distinction  was  called  Fair 
Maid  of  Kent,  daughter  to  Edmund  Plantagenet,  Earl  of  Kent,  but 
having  been  separated  from  her  upon  a  petition  from  Sir  Thomas 
Holland  to  the  Pope,  in  which  he  alleged  that  she  had  been  pre-con- 
tracted to  him,  his  lordship  married  second,  Elizabeth,  dau.  and 
co-heir  of  John  lord  Mohun,  one  of  the  original  Knights  of  the  Garter 
by  whom  he  had  a  son  who  died  without  issue,  having  been  accident- 
ally killed  by  his  father  in  a  tilting  at  Windsor  in  the  year  1383.  This 
son  was  named  Sir  William  Montague  and  married  Elizabeth,  dau.  of 
Richard  Fitz  Alan,  Earl  of  Arundel.  His  widow  married  in  1388 
Thomas  lord  Mowbray,  Earl  Marshal  of  England.

Sir  John  Montacute,  the  brother  of  this  Earl,  married  Margaret, 
dau.  and  heir  of  Sir  Thomas  Monthermer  son  of  Joan  of  Acres,  dau. 
of  King  Edward  I.,  in  whose  right  he  had  summons  to  Parliament 
from  the  31st  of  Edward  to  the  13th  year  of  Richard  II.,  when  he 
died.  He  had  three  sons.  John  his  heir  (who  became  3d  Earl  of 
Salisbury),  Thomas  Montague.  Dean  of  Salisbury,  and  Richard 
Montague,  of  whose  issue  there  is  no  trace.  This  Richard  lived 
about  the  year  1400.  None  of  the  English  genealogies  make  any 
further  mention  of  him  except  to  state  his  name.  It  is  claimed  that 
there  was  also  a  fourth  son,  whose  name  was  Simon  Montague,  and  from 
him  the  nobility  of  England  of  this  name  claim  descent.  Collins' 
Peerage,  however,  states  that  there  is  no  evidence  that  this  Simon 
ever  lived,  and  is  inclined  to  the  belief  that  the  nobility  are  descended 
from  James  Montague,  a  natural  son  of  Gen'l  Thomas  Montacute, 
4th  Earl  of  Salisbury.  This  James  Montague  had  large  possessions 
in  County  Kent,  where  he  was  a  man  of  distinction,  and  is  buried  in 
the  Church  of  Ludsdown  in  Kent.  Sir  John  Montacute  had  also 
three  daughters,  Sybil,  Catherine  and  Margaret. 

XII.  Sir  John  Montacute,  third  Earl  of  Salisbury  (and  eldest 
son  of  Sir  John),  was  thirty-nine  years  of  age  at  his  father's  decease, 
and  forty  when  his  uncle  died.  He  was  early  engaged  in  a  military 
life  and  had  been  in  most  of  the  memorable  battles  during  the  reign 
of  Edward  III.  In  the  15th  year  of  Richard  II.  he  obtained  leave 
to  serve  in  Prussia  and  from  the  16th  year  until  he  became  Earl  of 
Salisbury,  was  summoned  to  parliament  as  a  baron,  after  which  he 
not  only  had  livery  of  all  the  lands  of  which  his  Uncle  died  possessed 
(as  he  had  before  of  those  of  his  mother,  dau.  and  heir  of  Thomas 
lord  Monthermer),  but  also  obtained  a  grant  to  himself  and  his  heirs, 
of  several  Manors  in  the  Counties  of  Worcester  and  Norfolk. 

This  Earl  of  Salisbury  was  the  only  temporal  Nobleman,  who 
remained  firm  to  King  Richard's  interest  after  the  invasion  of  the 
duke  of  Lancaster,  and  even  when  Richard  was  deposed,  and  the 
duke  had  mounted  the  throne,  he  joined  in  a  plan  for  the  murder  of 
the  latter,  which  being  discovered,  he  and  the  earl  of  Kent  were 
pursued  to  a  village  near  Cirencester  where  the  rabble  struck  off  their 
heads  and  sent  them  to  London.  His  body  was  buried  at  Bisham 
Abbey  (which  his  ancestor  the  first  Earl  had  founded)  by  the  side  of 
the  second  Earl  of  Salisbury,  having  been  removed  thither  by  order 
of  his  widow.

He  married  Maude,  dau.  of  Sir  Adam  Francis,  Knight  (she  was 
the  widow,  first  of  John  Aubrey,  second  of  Sir  Allan  Boxhull,  Knight 
of  the  Garter).  Their  children  were,  Thomas,  the  eldest  son,  who  was 
afterward  4th  Earl  of  Salisbury,  Richard,  who  died  without  issue,  and 
three  daughters,  Anne,  (3  times  married)  Margaret,  and  Elizabeth. 

XIII.  Sir  Thomas  Montague,  Fourth  Earl  of  Salisbury  and 
eldest  son  of  the  3d  Earl,  was  only  twelve  years  of  age  at  his  father's 
death.  Though  the  great  estate,  of  which  the  last  earl  had  been 
possessed,  was  now  forfeited,  yet  a  considerable  part  of  it  was  recov- 
ered before  his  son  became  of  age  and  at  last,  in  the  reign  of  Henry 
V.,  he  retained  a  reversion  of  his  father's  attainder  and  was  restored 
in  blood. 

This  noble  Earl  was  concerned  in  so  many  military  exploits,  that 
to  give  an  account  of  them  all,  would  be  to  write  the  history  of 
the  reign  of  Henry  V.  Suffice  to  say,  that  as  he  lived  so  he  died  in 
the  service  of  his  Country,  for,  having  been  mortally  wounded  by  a 
stone,  shot  from  a  cannon  at  the  siege  of  Orleans,  he  was  carried  to 
Meun  on  the  Loire  where  he  departed  this  life  in  November,  1428. 
He  was  twice  married.  First  to  Eleanor,  dau.  of  Thomas  Holland, 
sister  of  Edmond,  Earl  of  Kent.  Second  to  Alice,  dau.  of  Thomas 
Chaucer.  He  had  but  one  child,  a  daughter  Alice.  His  body  was. 
brought  to  England  and  interred  by  the  side  of  his  ancestors  in  the 
Abbey  at  Bisham. 

XIV.  Alice  Montague,  dau.  of  General  Thomas  above  men- 
tioned, became  at  his  death  Countess  of  Salisbury. 

She  m.  Sir  Richard  Nevil,  who  in  her  right  became  Earl  of  Salis- 
bury. He  was  the  eldest  son  of  Ralph,  first  Earl  of  Westmoreland- 
He  followed  the  York  party,  was  taken  prisoner  in  a  battle  at  Wake- 
field and  beheaded.  At  his  death,  their  eldest  son,  Richard  Nevil, 
succeeded  to  the  title  of  Earl  of  Salisbury,  and,  in  right  of  his  father, 
Earl  of  Warwick. 

He  was  that  Earl  of  Warwick,  to  whom  the  House  of  York  owe 
their  ascent  to  the  throne.  He  also  bore  the  titles  of  lord  Monther- 
mer,  great  chamberlain  and  High  Admiral  of  England,  lord  Warden 
of  the  north  marches  toward  Scotland  and  High  Steward  of  the  Duchy 
of  Lancaster,  and  among  his  many  titles,  was  also  known  as  "the 
King  maker."  He  was  a  man  of  invincible  courage  and  took  delight 
in  dangers,  engaged  his  country  in  a  fresh  civil  war  in  which  he  lost

his  life.  He  was  slain  at  the  battle  of  Barnet,  14th  April,  1471, 
though  some  authors  affirm  that  he  was  murdered  by  his  own  party, 
John  Nevil,  the  younger  of  the  two  sons  of  Richard  and  Alice 
(Montague)  Nevil,  Earl  of  Salisbury,  was  1st  of  Edward  IV.  created 
Baron  Nevil  of  Montague,  and  10th  of  the  same  reign,  Marquis  of 
Montague. 

He  was  slain  at  the  battle  of  Barnet,  (some  say  murdered)  1471, 
while  endeavoring  to  succor  his  brother  Richard,  Earl  of  Warwick. 

They  were  both  laid  in  state  at  Westminster,  London,  and  afterward 
were  carried  to  Bisham  Abbey  and  buried  among  their  ancestors. 

Richard  Nevil,  Earl  of  Salisbury  and  Warwick,  had  two  daughters,, 
namely,  Isabel,  married  to  George,  Duke  of  Clarence,  and  Anne? 
married  first  to  Edward,  Prince  of  Wales,  son  of  Henry  VI.;  second 
to  King  Richard  III. 

George,  Duke  of  Clarence,  was  murdered  in  a  hogshead  of  winer 
leaving  his  wife  Isabel  with  an  only  son  Edward  who  was  beheaded 
on  Tower  hill  at  the  age  of  fifteen  by  order  of  Henry  VII.,  and  an  only 
daughter  Margaret  who  became  Countess  of  Salisbury  in  right  of  her 
mother.  She  was  the  last  Countess  of  Salisbury  and  with  her  death 
the  title  became  extinct  until  revived  in  the  person  of  Cecil,  in  the 
year  1605  by  King  James. 

The  title  of  Countess  of  Salisbury  had  been  restored  to  Margaret 
by  Henry  VIII.  in  full  parliament  about  the  fifth  year  of  his  reign. 

Both  George,  Duke  of  Clarence,  (who  was  a  brother  of  both  King 
Richard  III.  and  Edward  IV.)  and  his  unfortunate  son,  the  young 
Edward,  were  taken  to  Bisham  Abbey  and  buried  among  their 
ancestors.  Margaret  the  last  Countess  of  Salisbury,  married  Sir 
Richard  Pole  (also  often  spelled  Poole),  and  had  four  sons  and  one 
daughter.  Ursula,  married  Henry  Stafford,  son  of  the  Duke  of 
Buckingham.  She  was  beheaded  27th  of  May,  23d  of  Henry  VIII. 
The  sons  were,  Henry  Pole,  created  Baron  Montague,  Sir  Arthur, 
Sir  Jeffray,  and  Reginald  Pole  who  was  Dean  of  Winburne,  then 
made  a  Cardinal  by  Pope  Paul  III.,  and  afterward  Archbishop  of 
Canterbury.  He  was,  for  his  religion,  banished  from  England  by 
King  Henry  VIII.  He  went  to  Rome  and  became  eminent  with 
Pope  Paul  III.,  at  whose  death  he  was  unanimously  chosen  Pope,  as. 
his  successor.     This  he  refused  to  accept.      "  Thereupon,  one  night

INTRODUCTION. 


the  Cardinals  came  unto  him,  being  in  bed,  and  sent  him  word  they 
came  to  adore  him  (which  is  one  special  kinde  of  electing  the  Pope) 
but  he  being  awakened  and  made  acquainted  with  it  was  firm  in  his 
refusal." — (Baker's  Chronicles).  The  Cardinals  remained  with  him 
all  night. 

Her  son,  Henry  Pole,  was  made  Baron  Montague  in  1504  by  King 
Henry  VII.  He  married  Jane,  dau.  of  Sir  George  Nevil,  lord  of 
Abergeveney.  Being  connected  with  a  plot  to  re-instate  his  brother, 
Reginald,  Cardinal  Pole,  he  was  beheaded  upon  Tower  hill  in  1538, 
together  with  his  co-plotters  and  relatives,  Henry  Courtney,  Marquis 
of  Exeter,  and  Sir  Edward  Nevil.  Sir  Jeffry  Pole  was  concerned  in 
the  same  plot  but  gained  his  pardon  by  becoming  informer.  Sir 
Reginald  the  Cardinal  was  chosen  to  become  the  husband  of  Queen 
Mary  (Bloody  Mary)  to  whom  he  was  much  attached.  He  died  the 
1 8th  November,  1558,  on  the  next  day  after  the  death  of  Queen  Mary. 
The  mother,  Margaret  Pole,  Countess  of  Salisbury,  now  at  the  age  of 
seventy  years,  was  beheaded  by  Henry  VIII.  in  the  year  15 41. 

Anne,  the  other  daughter  of  Richard  Nevil,  Earl  of  Salisbury,  and 
Warwick,  married  as  before  stated  King  Richard  III.  They  had  one 
only  son  Edward  whom  his  uncle,  King  Edward  IV.,  in  the  17th  year 
of  his  reign  created  Earl  of  Salisbury,  and  Richard  his  father,  usurping 
the  Kingdom,  made  Prince  of  Wales.  He  died  young  and  his  mother 
soon  after  died,  not  without  suspicion  of  poison.  While  King  Richard 
himself  perished  upon  the  field  of  Bosworth. 

Thus  in  darkness  and  blood,  and  in  a  violent  manner,  upon  the 
scaffold,  perished  the  descendants  of  Alice  Montague  the  gentle  and 
only  daughter  of  General  Thomas  Montague,  fourth  and  last  Earl  of 
Salisbury  of  the  name  of  Montague,  and  this  branch  so  prolific  in 
great  men,  who  bathed  all  England  in  blood  during  the  dissensions 
of  the  Houses  of  York  and  Lancaster,  became  extinct. 

Their  lineage  has  thus  been  traced  to  its  final  ending,  not  because 
it  is  supposed  the  American  family  were  lineally  descended  from  any 
of  these  personages  who  are  so  well  known  in  history,  but  because 
they  all  lived  previous  to  the  year  1550,  at  which  date  the  will  of 
William  Montague,  from  whom  it  is  known  that  the  American  family 
are  descended,  was  proved,  and  therefore  it  would  not  be  out  of  place 
to  mention  their  history  as  descendants  of  the  Earls  of  Salisbury. 

Attention  will  now  be  directed  to  the  immediate  branch  of  Monta- 
gues, whose  descendants  peopled  America,  and  whose  names  will  be 
found  in  the  body  of  this  work.

From  the  year  1500  to  the  year  1550.  two  brothers  lived  in  the 
Count}-  of  Buckingham  and  Parish  of  Burnham.  England. 
Their  names  were 
William  Montague,  and 
John  Montague. 

The  younger  brother  John  Montague  married  Cecily  *  *  *  .  his 
will  was  proved  Dec.  26.  1552.  His  children  were  Thomas,  Edmund, 
Ursula.  Thomas  the  eldest,  called  Thomas  of  Phalley,  married 
Elizabeth  *  *  *  *.  His  will  was  dated  Jan.  14.  1599.  His  sons 
were  Abraham.  John  of  Penn  (who  married  Katty)  and  Thomas. 
Abraham  the  eldest  was  Vicar  of  Stokes  Poges.  Buckinghamshire,  in 
1620.  His  will  was  dated  in  1629.  He  had  a  daughter  Elizabeth, 
m.  to  Robert  Foorcl.  a  son  Abraham  baptized  29  Jan..  1627.  buried 
4th  Jan..  1628.  John  of  Penn  had  a  son  William .  who  married 
Agnes,  and  a  daughter  Ann.  who  was  married  in  16 17. 

The  elder  brother, 

I.  William  Montague,  was  the  ancestor  of  the  Virginia  family. 
He  resided  at  Boveney.  parish  of  Burnham.  Buckinghamshire,  a 

hamlet  on  the  Thames,  just  above  Eton  college  and  twenty-three 
miles  from  London. 

He  married  Joan  *  *. 

His  will  was  proved  [March  21.  1550. 

His  children  were 

(1.)    William  Montague  (of  Bray),  whose  son  was  William  Montague 
of  Waldeston,  Bucks. 
(2.)    Robert,  1 
(3.)  Alice, 
(4.)  Katherine. 

II.  Robert  Montague,  the  second  son.  married  Margaret,  dau. 
of  Roger  Cotton  of  Wardville  (probably  Warrleld).  Berkshire.  He 
was  buried  Jan.  10.  1575.    He  left  two  sons, 

(1.)     Lawrence,  and 
(2.)  William. 

Lawrence  Montague,  the  elder,  was  Vicar  of  Dorney,*  Bucking- 
hamshire. He  7n.  Joan.  dau.  of  *  *  Radclifre  of  Wycombe.  Bucks. 

*  Dorney  is  ih  miles  west  of  Eton,  and  was  an  adjoining  manor  to  Boveney,  both  of  these 
manors  seemed  to  have  been  owned  by  the  "  Girrard  family,  and  afterward  by  Charles  H. 
Palmer,  whose  ancestor.  Sir  James  Palmer.  Knight,  married  the  daughter  of  Sir  William 
Garrard  who  died  in  1607."    Lysons  Magna  Brit.  Vol.  1,  530.     The  parish  of  Burnham  was

INTRODUCTION. 


His  son,  Richard  Montague,  was  born  about  1578  at  Dorney, 
educated  at  Eton  and  King's  college,  Cambridge.  Having  entered 
into  holy  orders  he  was  presented  to  the  living  of  Wotten  Courtney 
in  Somerset,  afterward  became  rector  of  Stamford  Rivers  in  Essex. 
In  1 6 16  he  was  made  Dean  of  Hereford.  In  1628  he  was  consecrated 
Bishop  of  Chichester,  and  translated  in  1638  to  the  See  of  Norwich, 
"  Together  with  his  fellowship  at  Eaton,  he  held  by  dispensation  a 
Canonry  of  Windsor.  In  the  Chapel  there,  he  preached  the  theolog- 
ical lectures  for  eight  years  successively."  Wood's  Ath.  Oxe.  He 
was  also  for  a  time  Parson  of  Petworth.  He  was  chaplain  to  King 
James  I.,  who  remained  his  firm  friend.  His  published  works  were 
numerous.  As  a  churchman,  he  opposed  both  Puritans  and  Roman 
Catholics. 

In  one  of  his  controversies  he  wrote  a  book  "  Appello  Caesarem," 
for  which  he  was  summoned  before  the  House  of  Commons  on  a 
charge  of  maintaining  Arminean  and  popish  errors.  He  was  censured 
by  the  Speaker  and  was  obliged  to  give  bail  of  ^2000,  for  his  appear- 
ance. His  books  were  ordered  to  be  burned  by  the  common 
hangman.  His  bail  bond  was  signed  by  the  Duke  of  Buckingham 
and  his  sister.  Though  prosecuted  by  parliament,  the  King  (James) 
remained  his  friend  and  patron  and  continued  to.  advance  him  to 
higher  preferments. 

At  Eton  college  he  assisted  Sir  Henry  Savile  and  in  1610  edited 
several  orations  of  St.  Gregory  Nazianzen  which  were  published  that 
year.  The  history  of  Eton  college  says  of  him,  "that  he  was  admitted 
Fellow  in  16 13,  was  connected  with  the  Greek  press  at  Eton,  and 
revised  the  proof  sheets  of  St.  Chrysostom." 

Laud  describes  him  as  a  "  very  good  scholar  and  a  right  honest 
man,  a  man  every  way  able  to  do  God,  his  Majesty,  and  the  church 
of  England  great  service."  James  I.,  no  mean  judge,  considered  him 
competent  to  enter  the  lists  against  such  formidable  opponents  as 
Cardinal  Baronius  and  John  Selden,  at  different  times. 

The  last  years  of  Montague's  life  were  spent  in  what  he  describes 

divided  into  five  districts  called  "  liberties,"  namely  Brightwell,  Chippenham,  Boveney, 
Wood  and  East  Burnham.  After  the  dissolution  of  Monasteries  by  Henry  VIII.,  Boveney 
was  united  to  the  Paules  of  Braywick.  It  appears  to  have  been  well  wooded  with  trees  as  it 
is  recorded  that  much  of  the  timber  for  building  Eton  College  mostly  Elm  was  obtained 
there,  and  at  a  later  date,  Lipscombe  says,  "  The  woods  of  Boveney  were  sufficient  for  60 
hogs,  there  was  land  for  one  team  which  was  kept  there,  with  one  Villein  (farmer)  and  a  car- 
acate  of  pasture  which  was  estimated  always  at  10  shillings."

as  the  effort  "  to  stand  in  the  gappe  against  Puritanisme  and  Popery, 
the  Scilla  and  Charybdis  of  ancient  piety." 

A  sermon  preached  by  him  as  Canon  of  Windsor,  before  the  King 
in  162 1.  aroused  the  suspicions  of  the  Puritan  party  who  accused 
him  of  supporting  the  Invocation  of  Saints.  His  vindication  of  the 
sermon  showed  that  he  was  not  to  be  daunted  by  threats,  and  he 
wrote  to  his  friend  Cosin  :  "  Me  temerarium,  that  provokes  enimyes 
on  all  sides,  Puritans,  Papists,  Lawyers,  hell  and  all.  '  Dulichii 
Samiique  et  quos  tulit  alta  Zacynthus,  Turba  ruunt  in  me.' 

So  you  heare,  so  you  say  ....  I  am  redy  not  only  to  be  bound 
but  sw  ©eo)  to  dye  for  the  church.  I  shall  never  faile  the  church  of 
England  but  usque  ad  aras  do  my  best  to  uphold  the  doctrine  and 
discipline  ther." 

Three  years  later  Montague  fell  into  controversy  with  the  Roman- 
ists, in  consequence  of  his  having  found  some  of  their  emissaries 
attempting  to  make  proselytes  in  his  county  parish.  Fuller  says  of 
him,  that  "  his  great  parts  were  attended  with  a  tartness  of  writing ; 
very  sharp  the  nib  of  his  pen,  and  much  gall  mingled  in  his  ink, 
against  such  as  opposed  him.  However  such  the  equability  of  the 
sharpness  of  his  style,  he  was  impartial  therein ;  be  he  ancient  or 
modern  writer,  papist  or  protestant,  that  stood  in  his  way,  they 
should  all  equally  taste  thereof."  In  speaking  of  the  Roman  "Gag 
for  the  new  Gospell,"  Montague  says,  "answere  it  I  have,  bitterly 
and  tartly  I  confesse,  which  I  did  purposely,  because  the  asse 
deserved  so  to  be  rub'd."  It  so  happened  however  that  his  mode  of 
conducting  the  controversy  infuriated  the  Puritans  even  more  than 
his  Romanist  antagonists,  as  he  surrendered,  without  a  blow,  many 
positions  which  had  hitherto  been  warmly  contested.  Like  the  earlier 
English  Reformers,  he  appealed  to  Holy  Scripture  as  interpreted  by 
the  Primitive  church  and  General  Councils,  but  he  did  so  with  a  wider 
knowledge  of  Patristic  theology  than  any  of  them  had  possessed.  He 
refused  to  brand  the  Pope  as  Antichrist ;  he  defended  the  use  of  the 
sign  of  the  cross,  of  images,  and  of  auricular  confession ;  and  he 
maintained  high  views  as  to  the  efficacy  of  the  Sacraments. 

Montague  was  protected  from  his  enemies  by  the  influence  of  the 
King  and  by  the  dissolution  of  Parliament.  His  utter  repudiation  of 
Calvanism  would  at  one  time,  have  got  him  into  trouble  at  Court,  but, 
such  is  the  irony  of  fate,  he  was  appointed  Bishop  of  Chichester  in

1628,  on  the  death  of  Carleton.  This  was  four  years  after  his 
resignation  of  the  Eton  Fellowship." 

He  was  an  excellent  scholar,  and  Selden  himself,  his  great  antag- 
onist, owns  him  to  have  been  a  man  well  skilled  in  ancient  learning. 
He  died  of  the  ague,  April  13,  1641,  and  was  buried  in  his  own 
Cathedral  at  Norwich.  He  had  a  son  Richard,  and  a  daughter 
married  to  D.  Stokes,  D.  D.    They  had  a  son  Richard  Stokes,  M.  D. 

III.  William  Montague,  second  son  of  Robert,  and  brother  of 
Lawrence,  married  Margaret,  dau.  of  John  Malthouse  of  Binfield, 
Berkshire.    Their  children  were  : 

(1.)  William  Montague  of  Boveney,  M.  A.,  and  fellow  of  King's 
college,  Cambridge.  He  left  Eton  college  and  succeeded  to  the 
estate  at  Boveney,  1581,  and  was  living  in  1634. 

(2.)  Elizabeth,  who  married  Richard  Burns,  or  Barns,  of  Wink-

It  will  be  noticed  that  the  arms  of  the  Boveney  family  are  the  same 
as  the  arms  of  Sir  Simon  Montacute  who  signed  the  Baron's  letter 
(compare  plates  of  both  arms),  except  that  to  the  former  there  have 
been  added  three  ogresses. 

The  ogresses  may  have  been  added  for  difference  in  family,  or  they 
may  (as  it  has  been  expressed  by  a  gentleman  in  London  who  bears 
the  name)  have  been  added  to  mark  some  deed  done  at  some  time, 
such  as  a  large  donation  of  land  to  the  church,  as  the  church  at 
Boveney  bears  such  a  record. 

Perhaps  they  may  have  been  added  as  a  part  of  the  maternal  arms 
of  William  Montague,  son  of  Robert,  for  his  mother  was  Margaret, 
clau.  of  Roger  Cotton.  And  the  Arms  of  one  family  of  Cotton  were, 
"Argent  a  bend  Sable  between  three  ogresses."' 

Whatever  may  have  been  the  origin  of  these  pellets,  the  fact  still 
remains,  that  the  Boveney  family  bear  the  Arms  of  Sir  Simon  Mon- 
tague of  A.  D.  1300.  which  Arms  were  also  borne  by  his  son  lord 
William  Montacute  and  by  his  grandson  the  first  Earl  of  Salisbury. 

Heraldry,  or  more  properly  Armory,  is  the  short  hand  of  History, 
its  purpose  was  to  identify  persons  and  property  and  to  record  descent 
and  alliance.  Hundreds  of  persons  may  be  entitled  to  the  same 
initials,  may  possess  precisely  the  same  names  ;  but  only  the  members 
of  a  particular  family  can  lawfully  bear  certain  armorial  ensigns,  and 
the  various  branches  of  even  that  family  have  their  separate 
differences  to  distinguish  one  from  the  other. 

The  Boveney  family  bear  the  same  name  as  the  descendants  of 
Drogo. 

They  were  residing  in  A.  D.  1500  in  the  same  locality  and  county 
of  England  where  the  descendants  of  Drogo  had  held  possession  and 
manors  in  A.  D.  1400  and  for  centuries  before. 

They  bear  the  same  Arms  which  alone  would  seem  to  silently  but 
surely  denote  that  they  are  a  branch  of  the  same  family.  Where  and 
when  the  separation  took  place  is  not  known,  but  it  would  seem 

whose  will  was  proved  A.  D.  1550,  down  to  Richard  and  Peter  who  went  to  America,  was 
obtained  by  Mr.  William  H.  Montague  of  Boston — one  of  the  founders,  and  for  many  years 
Secretary  of  the  New  England  Historical  and  Genealogical  Society,  to  whose  early  labors,  in 
behalf  of  this  work,  which  date  back  as  far  as  1847,  the  American  family  must  ever  be 
indebted.  For  he  employed  at  considerable  expense  H.  G.  Somerby,  Esq.,  an  eminent 
genealogist,  and  an  American  resident  in  London,  who  made  verbatim  copy  of  the  Pedigree 
of  this  family  from  1550  from  the  Records  in  the  Herald's  College,  London,  and  also  went  to 
Boveney,  Buckinghamshire,  and  compared  and  copied  the  Parish  Records,  thus  bringing  the 
pedigree  down  to  the  year  1634.

INTRODUCTION. 


probable  that  the  Boveney  branch  left  the  main  stem,  after  the  year 
1300  and  before  the  year  1400,  or  between  those  dates,  for  their 
Coat  of  Arms  was  not  in  existence  until  adopted  by  Sir  Simon  Mon- 
tacute  A.  D.  1300,  and  had  they  separated  previous  to  that  date,  their 
Arms  should  have  been  "Azure  a  griffin  segreant,  Or."  Again  the 
Arms  of  the  Montagues,  after  A.  D.  1400,  who  were  descended  from 
the  3d  Earl  of  Salisbury,  have  been  quartered  with  those  of  the 
Monthermers,  which  were  "an  eagle  displayed,  vert,"  while  the 
Boveney  branch  retains  the  ancient  shield  of  Sir  Simon  Montacute 
(1301). 

There  are  several  places  where  such  separation  seems  possible. 

At  Simon  (9th  generation  from  Drogo),  who  married  Hawise  de 
St.  Amand  and  had  a  son  William  Montague. 

Again  at  the  third  and  youngest  son  of  the  first  Earl  of  Salisbury, 
namely  Robert  Montague,  of  whose  history  nothing  has  been  found. 

The  pedigree  is  clear  and  perfect  from  the  American  branch  (1634) 
back  to  A.  D.  1500  and  lacks  (from  there)  two  generations,  possibly 
three,  to  make  a  perfect  record  back  to  the  conquest  of  England, 
A.  D.  1066. 


Montagu,  a  Royal  Name. 

Many  branches  of  the  Montagues  in  America,  have  the  tradition 
that  the  name  Montague  is  a  "  royal  "  name.  There  is  some  truth 
in  the  tradition.  The  name  in  England,  however,  has  not  only  been 
descended  from  royalty,  but  it  has  a  higher  and  more  lofty  signifi- 
cance, for  the  Montagues  were  the  parents  and  ancestors  of  Kings. 

As  it  way  be  of  interest  to  many  of  the  name  and  blood,  to  know 
exactly  how  the  name  has  been  connected  with  royalty  in  ancient 
times,  the  following  has  been  carefully  compiled,  and  will  be  found 
sufficiently  complete  to  justify  the  tradition. 

Sir  Simon  Montagu,  the  8th  in  lineal  descent  from  Drogo,  (the 
first,  of  the  name  in  England)  married  Aufricia,  dau.  of  Fergus,  King 
of  the  Isle  of  Man,  descended  from  Orry,  King  of  Denmark.  He 
became  in  her  right  King  of  Man,  and  both  the  isle,  and  the  title  as 
King  of  the  isle,  descended  to  his  son  and  grandson. 

Sir  Edward  Montagu,  one  of  the  grandsons  of  Sir  Simon,  was  a 
great  warrior  of  his  day,  was  Governor  of  the  Castle  of  Werk,  when

The  Blazon  of  these  Arms  may  be  found  in  Edmondson's  Heraldry,  in  Burke's  Encyclo-

in  1342.  He  married  Alice,  dau.  of  Thomas  Plantagenet,  Earl  of 
Norfolk,  son  of  King  Edward  I.  by  his  second  Queen,  Margaret,  dau. 
of  Philip  III.,  or  the  Hardy,  of  France.  He  was  called  Thomas  of 
Brotherton,  because  he  was  born  at  Brotherton  in  Yorkshire.  Having 
received,  with  his  title  of  Earl  of  Xorfolk.  the  Vast  Estates  of  Roger 
Bigod  the  last  Earl  of  Xorfolk.  he  was  one  of  the  richest  men  in  Eng- 
land, and  his  Estates  were  divided  at  his  death  between  his  two 
daughters  [his  only  children]  Margaret  and  Alice.  He  was  the 
founder  of  Reddenhall  church.  Earsham  Hundred.  Co.  Xorfolk.  built 
of  free  stone,  which  in  1770  had  the  finest  Tower  of  any  Co.  Parish 
church  in  England.  His  younger  daughter,  Alice,  was  born  in  1323 
and  married  Sir  Edward  Montagu  in  1344.  She  brought  as  her 
marriage  portion  to  Sir  Edward,  (among  other  manors)  the  manors 
of  Reddenhall,  and  also  Ditchingham  Hall.  Lodden  Hund,  Xorfolk. 
Their  issue  was  Edward  Montague  who  held  Reddenhall  Manor  in 
1360,  but  died  in  1365.  and  Etheldred  his  sister  possessed  the  manor. 
She  married  in  1390  Sir  Hugh  Strauley.  Kt.  The  eldest  dau.  of 
Edward  and  Alice  Montagu  was  Joan.  In  1360  she  was  the  wife  of 
William  de  Ufford,  Earl  of  Suffolk.  He  was  the  son  of  Robert 
Ufford,  Earl  of  Suffolk,  who  was  the  son  of  Robert  steward  of  the 
King's  House  under  Edward  II.  by  Cecillia  de  Valoniis.  Lady  of 
Orford.  William  and  Joan  had  four  sons,  all  died  by  an  untimely 
death,  and  William  de  Ufford  himself,  in  138 1.  as  he  was  going  to 
report  the  opinion  of  the  House  of  Commons  in  Parliament,  suddenly 
fell  down  dead  as  he  was  going  up  stairs  to  the  Upper  House. 

Margaret,  the  other  dau.  of  Thomas  of  Brotherton,  and  sister  of 
the  Lady  Alice  Montagu,  was  called  Lady  Marshall  and  Countess  of 
X'orfolk,  she  was  created  Duchess  of  X"orfolk  for  life,  by  King  Richard 
II.  She  married  John,  lord  Segrave.  with  whom  she  lived  unhappily 
and  traveled  all  the  way  to  Rome  to  see  the  Pope  and  obtain  a 
divorce.  She  married  (2)  Sir  Walter  Manney.  Knight  of  the  Garter, 
and  died  March  24,  1399.  By  her  first  marriage,  Thomas,  lord 
Mowbray,  Duke  of  Xorfolk  in  1401.  was  her  grandson:  he  was 
beheaded  at  York,  with  Richard  Scrope  Archbishop  of  Canterbury  in 
1405,  but  from  him  was  descended  the  Lady  Anne  Bolin.  wife  of 
King  Henry  VIII.  and  mother  of  Queen  Elizabeth.  Anne  Bolin  was 
thus  lineally  descended  from  King  Edward  I.  She  was  also  a  Mon- 
tagu, by  the  following  line  of  descent :    Anne,  dau.  of  Sir  John

INTRODUCTION. 


Montagu,  3d  Earl  of  Salisbury,  married  Sir  Richard  Hankford  and 
had  a  dau.  Anne,  who  married  Thomas  Butler,  7th  Earl  of  Ormond, 
whose  dau.  Margaret  became  the  wife  of  William  Bolin,  and  the 
mother  of  Sir  Thomas  Bolin  who  was  the  father  of  Anne  Bolin  wife 
of  King  Henry  VIII.  and  mother  of  Queen  Elizabeth.  This  Queen 
was  then  of  Montague  blood  both  through  her  father  Henry  VIII. 
and  also  through  her  mother  Anne  Bolin.  The  following  is  from 
Hasted's  Hist,  of  Co.  Kent,  Vol.  XL,  p.  92  :  "Queen  Elizabeth  was 
in  1 56 1  presented  with  a  pair  of  silk  stockings  by  her  silk  woman, 
Mrs.  Montague,  and  afterward  she  never  wore  cloth  ones  again." 
Who  this  Mrs.  Montague  was  it  is  difficult  to  say  but  it  is  known  that 
Sir  Edward  Montagu,  Chief  Justice  of  the  King's  Bench  and  Chief 
Justice  of  the  Common  Pleas,  was  one  of  the  Executors  of  the  will  of 
King  Henry  VIII.  and  also  guardian  of  his  son  Edward  who  succeeded 
him  as  King  Edward  VI.  This  Edward  Montague  was  three  times 
married,  and  the  father  of  seventeen  children. 

The  elder  brother  of  Sir  Edward  Montagu  (who  married  Alice)  was 
Sir  William  Montagu,  Ambassador  to  the  Pope,  Baron  of  Denbeigh, 
Governor  of  Sherburn  and  Corffe  Castles,  Governor  of  the  isles  of 
Guernsey,  Jersey,  Sark  and  Alderney,  Constable  of  the  Tower  of 
London,  and  had  his  crest  of  an  eagle  given  him  by  the  King*.  See 
Note,  Admiral  of  the  fleet,  Earl  of  Salisbury,  Ambassador  to  the 
Duke  of  Bavaria,  Appointed  Earl  Marshall  of  England  for  life,  King 
of  Man,  Member  of  Parliament,  and  one  of  the  founders  of  the  Royal 
Order  of  Knights  of  the  Garter.  This  great  man  married  Catherine, 
dau.  of  William,  lord  Grandison,  descended  out  of  Burgundy,  cousin 
german  to  the  Emperor  of  Constantinople,  the  King  of  Hungary  and 
Duke  of  Bavaria.  She  was  a  lady  of  great  beauty,  and  history  records 
that  she  was  as  good  as  she  was  beautiful.  Upon  one  occasion  while 
attending  a  feast  at  Windsor  Castle  she  was  dancing  with  King 
Edward  III.  and  lost  her  garter  which  the  King  took  up  from  the 
floor.  Some  of  the  Nobles  that  stood  around  were  seen  to  smile, 
whereupon  the  King  remarked  "that  the  time  should  shortly  come 

*  The  crest  of  Edward  III.  was  a  lion,  which  has  remained  the  Royal  Crest  to  the  present 
day.  The  Eagle  was  a  crest  which  Edward  III.  distinguishes  as  his  own  personal  decoration 
and  the  granting  of  it  to  William  Montague  was  a  neat  compliment,  and  kind  expression  of 
regard  and  royal  favor,  on  the  part  of  the  King. 

The  Earl  Montague,  with  that  delicate  sense  of  honor  and  the  fitness  of  things  which  has 
distinguished  the  Montagues  from  that  period  to  the  present,  immediately  re-granted  the 
Eagle  crest  with  great  form,  to  the  Young  Prince  Lionel,  his  godson,  son  of  the  King,  and 
afterward,  that  Duke  of  Clarence  whose  daughter  married  the  Earl  Montague's  grandson.

when  the  greatest  honor  imaginable  should  be  paid  to  that  Garter." 
Thus  originated  the  Royal  order  of  the  Knights  of  the  Garter  with 
its  motto  in  French  "  Honi  soit  que  mal  y  pense."  This  order  con- 
sisted of  26  Knights,  and  the  mightiest  Princes  of  Christendom  have, 
reputed  it  a  very  great  honor  to  be  chosen  as  a  member. 

Lady  Sibyl  Montagu,  eldest  dau.  of  this  great  Earl  of  Salisbury, 
married  Edmund,  son  of  Edmund  Earl  of  Arundel.  He  was  of  royal 
blood  being  descended  through  Hamlyn  Plantagenet  and  thence  froim 
William  the  Conquerer  through  his  dau.  Gundred. 

Lady  Philippa  Montagu,  second  dau.  and  sister  of  Sibyl,  married 
Roger  Mortimer  Earl  of  March.  He  was  son  of  Edmund,  and  grand- 
son of  that  Roger  Mortimer  Earl  of  March  who  was  put  to  death  by 
Edward  III.  as  related  in  another  part  of  this  introduction.  The  son 
of  Lady  Philippa  Montague  by  this  marriage,  also  named  Edmund 
Earl  of  March,  married  Philippa,  only  daughter  of  Lionel,  Duke  of 
Clarence,  [third  son  of  King  Edward  III.]  by  Lady  Elizabeth  de 
Burgh,  dau.  of  William  Earl  of  Ulster.  Their  son  Roger  Mortimer 
Earl  of  March  was  direct  heir  to  the  Crown  of  England  and  was 
designed  by  King  Richard  as  his  successor,  but  he  died  before  the 
King,  leaving  issue  Edmund  and  Anne.  Edmund  was  thrown  into 
prison  by  King  Henry  IV.  who  had  usurped  the  Government,  and 
feared  Edmund's  title  to  the  Crown,  where  he  died  of  grief  and  dis- 
content, leaving  his  sister  Anne  to  inherit  the  Crown.  Lady  Anne 
Mortimer  married  Richard  Plantagenet,  Earl  of  Cambridge  son  of 
Edmund  of  Langley  who  was  the  fifth  son  of  King  Edward  III.  They 
had  an  only  son,  Richard  Plantagenet,  Duke  of  York,  Protector  of 
England,  who  fell  at  the  battle  of  W7akefield  1460,  leaving  the 
following  children  (all  of  Montagu  blood)  by  his  wife  Cicily,  dau.  of 
Ralph  Nevil'l,  Earl  of  Westmoreland,  viz.:  Edward  IV.  King  of  Eng- 
land; Edmund  Earl  of  Rutland,  slain  at  Wakefield  when  only  12 
years  old  ;  George  Duke  of  Clarence  who  married  Isabel,  grand  dau. 
of  Alice  Montague  [dau.  of  Gen'l  Thomas  Montagu]  and  was  drowned 
in  a  barrel  of  wine ;  Richard  III.,  King  of  England ;  Anne,  married 
to  the  Duke  of  Exeter ;  Margaret,  married  to  Charles  the  Bold,  Duke 
of  Burgundy  ;  and  Elizabeth,  married  to  John  De-La-Pole,  Duke  of 
Suffolk,  who  had  by  her,  two  sons ;  John,  Earl  of  Lincoln,  Lord 
Lieut,  of  Ireland,  who  was  declared  heir  to  the  Crown  by  King 
Richard  III.  but  lost  his  life  in  the  battle  of  Stoke,  1487  ;  Edmund 
Delapole  who  succeeded  his  father  as  Duke  of  Suffolk  in  1491.  He:

INTRODUCTION. 


oeing  an  heir  to  the  Crown  was  artfully  secured  in  the  Tower  by 
King  Henry  VII.  and  at  last  was  beheaded  in  15 13  by  Henry  VIII. 

The  Princess  Elizabeth,  dau  of  King  Edward  IV.,  of  Montagu 
blood  as  above  stated,  married  Henry  Tudor,  Earl  of  Richmond,  who 
"became  Henry  VII.,  King  of  England,  thus  uniting  the  Houses  of 
Lancaster  and  York,  the  red  rose  and  the  white.  She  became  the 
mother  of  King  Henry  VIII.;  also  the  mother  of  Margaret,  married 
to  King  James,  IV.  of  Scotland,  who  became  the  grandmother  of 
Mary  Queen  of  Scots  ;  and  also  the  mother  of  Elizabeth,  married  to 
Lewis  the  XII,  King  of  France.  Thus  from  the  marriage  of  Philippa 
Montagu  to  the  Earl  of  March,  there  was  descended  a  long  line  of 
royal  personages  that  includes  the  Kings  and  Queens  of  England 
more  remote  of  course,  to  the  present  day. 

Sir  William  Montagu,  eldest  son  of  the  great  Earl  of  Salisbury, 
became  the  second  Earl  of  Salisbury  at  the  death  of  his  father.  He 
married  Joan,  dau.  of  Edmund  Plantagenet  Earl  of  Kent,  3d  son  of 
King  Edward  I.  This  great  Earl  of  Kent,  and  son  of  a  King,  was 
beheaded  at  Winchester  in  1380,  after  he  had  remained  upon  the 
scaffold  from  noon  until  five  o'clock  in  the  evening,  waiting  for  an 
executioner ;  he  was  so  loved  by  the  people  that  no  one  was  willing 
to  undertake  the  horrid  office,  till  a  malefactor  from  the  Marshalsea 
was  procured  to  perform  it.  His  daughter  Joan  was  a  lady  of  incom- 
parable beauty,  and  on  account  of  her  extraordinary  beauty  was 
styled  "the  Fair  Maid  of  Kent."  She  did  not  long  remain  the  wife 
of  William  Montagu,  however,  for  Sir  Thomas  Holland  sent  a  petition 
to  Pope  Clement  VI.  alleging  that  he  had  a  prior  contract  from  her, 
-and  that  the  Earl  of  Salisbury  uujustly  withheld  her  from  him,  where- 
upon the  Pope  gave  judgment  against  the  Earl,  and  the  "  Fair  Maid 
of  Kent  "  was  transferred  to  Sir  Thomas  Holland  who  was  soon  after 
beheaded,  and  she  became  the  wife  of  that  immortal  hero  Edward 
the  Black  Prince,  eldest  son  of  King  Edward  III.  and  by  him  she 
became  the  mother  of  King  Richard  II.  William  Montagu,  after  his 
divorce  from  the  "  Fair  Maid  of  Kent,"  married  Elizabeth,  dau.  of 
John  Lord  Mohun,  one  of  the  Founders  of  the  Knights  of  the  Garter. 
She  was  sister  of  Philippa  de  Mohun  who  married  Edward  Planta- 
genet, 2d  Duke  of  York,  son  of  Edmund  of  Langley,  5th  son  of 
Edward  III.  The  Lady  Mohun,  mother  of  the  above  Elizabeth, 
obtained  from  her  husband  so  much  good  ground  for  the  common,  or

Sir  John  Montagu,  "brother  of  Philippa  Montagu  who  married  the 
Earl  of  March],  was  Steward  of  the  Household  of  King  Richard  II. 
He  was  buried  in  Salisbury  Cathedral.  He  married  Margaret,  dau. 
of  Thomas  Monthermer,  grand  dau.  of  Joan  of  Acres,  dau.  of  King" 
Edward  I.  Joan  of  Acres  was  so  called  because  she  was  born 
at  Aeon  in  the  Holy  Land.  She  was  the  dau.  of  Edward  I.  by 
Eleanor,  dau.  of  Ferdinand  III.  of  Spain.  There  is  a  romance  con- 
nected with  the  marriage  of  Joan  of  Acres.  She  married  first,  Gilbert- 
de  Claire  the  red  Earl  of  Gloucester,  after  his  death  she  secretly 
married  Ralph  de  Mont-Hermer  who  occupied  an  inferior  position  in 
the  King's  household.  The  King,  her  father,  was  very  angry,  threw 
Ralph  into  prison,  but  finally  forgave  him  and  made  him  Earl  of 
Gloucester.  Their  son  Thomas  was  slain  in  a  sea  light  in  1340. 
leaving  one  only  dau.  Margaret  who  became  the  wife  of  Sir  John 
Montagu  as  above  stated.  Margaret  died  March  24.  1394.  leaving 
three  sons  and  four  daughters.  Two  of  the  daughters  became  nuns  ~ 
of  the  third  son  Richard  Montagu  no  record  has  been  found.  The 
second  son  Thomas  became  Dean  of  Salisbury  and  was  buried  in  the 
Chapel  of  the  Virgin  Mary  in  Salisbury  Cathedral.  The  eldest  son 
Sir  John  Montagu,  became  the  3d  Earl  of  Salisbury,  and  was  Earl 
Marshall  of  England  but  at  last  beheaded.  His  eldest  son  Sir 
Thomas  Montagu.  Knight  of  the  Garter,  became  the  greatest  General 
of  his  age.  He  was  the  4th  and  last  Earl  of  Salisbury  and  he  became 
such  a  terror  to  the  French  that  upon  one  occasion  the  entire  French 
army,  including  the  King  of  France,  were  put  to  flight  by  the  mere 
crv  being  raised  that  "  Le-Salisburv  is  coming!  "  He  married  Eleanor" 
dau.  of  Thomas  Holland.  Earl  of  Kent,  she  was  a  grand-daughter  of 
the  "  Fair  Maid  of  Kent."  By  this  marriage  he  had  an  only  child, 
a  daughter  Alice  Montagu  who  married  Richard  Nevill  Earl  of  Salis- 
bury in  her  right,  and  she  became  the  mother  of  that  great  Earl  of 
Warwick  called  the  "King-maker"  and  "Whirlwind  of  England," 
also  of  John  Xevill  Marquis  of  Montagu.  She  was  the  grandmother 
of  Isabel,  wife  of  George  Duke  of  Clarence,  and  of  Anne,  wife  first 
of  Edward  son  of  Henry  VI.,  second,  of  King  Richard  III.  From, 
her  also  was  descended  Edward  Earl  of  Warwick,  beheaded  at  the

elected  Pope  at  Rome,  and  others.  Among  the  descendants  of

sons  of  King  Edward  IV.,  smothered  in  the  Tower  of  London  by 
order  of  their  Uncle  King  Richard  III.  They  were  Edward,  born  in 
the  Sanctuary  at  Westminster  and  proclaimed  King  Edvard  V.  [but 
never  crowned]  at  the  death  of  his  father,  though  only  eleven  years 
old  ;  and  Richard  Duke  of  York,  born  at  Shrewsbury. 


Various  branches  of  the  Montagues  in  America  have  the  name  in 
their  families  of  "Mary  Wortley  "  or  the  name  "  Wortley  "  among 
some  of  their  children.  It  is  derived  from  the  celebrated  literary 
lady  in  England — the  lady  Mary  Wortley  Montagu.  It  becomes  of 
interest,  in  connection  with  this  work,  to  know  something  of  this  lady, 
to  what  family  of  Montague  she  was  a  member,  and  in  what  way  the 
Wortleys  were  connected  with  the  Montagues.  On  the  river  Don,  in 
the  West-riding  of  Yorkshire  is  the  town  of  Wortley,  the  ancient  seat 
of  that  family ;  the  male  issue  of  which  expired  in  Sir  Francis 
Wortley,  who  devised  the  greatest  part  of  his  estate  to  Anne  New- 
comen,  supposed  to  be  his  natural  daughter,  [Camden  p.  723.]  She 
married  Sidney  Montagu,  second  son  of  Edward  first  Earl  of  Sand- 
wich, and  brother  of  Edward  Montagu  the  second  Earl  of  Sandwich. 
In  right  of  his  wife  he  became  lord  of  Wortley  and  took  the  name  of 
Wortley.  They  had  only  one  son  (who  lived  to  manhood)  whose 
name  was  Edward  Wortley  Montagu;  he  was  lord  of  the  Treasury 
in  1714,  also  was  Ambassador  in  Turkey  and  died  in  1762.  He  was 
a  gentleman  of  great  political  knowledge  and  influence,  and  distin- 
guished not  only  as  an  eloquent  and  upright  member  of  parliament, 
but  as  a  friend  of  Addison.  He  married  in  17  12  Lady  Mary,  eldest 
dau.  of  Evelyn  Pierrepoint,  Earl  and  Duke  of  Kingston.  This  lady 
became  the  celebrated  lady  Mary  Wortley  Montagu.  Her  mother 
was  Mary  dau.  of  William  Fielding  3d  Earl  of  Denbigh  by  a  dau.  of 
Sir  Robert  King,  widow  of  Sir  William  Meredith.  She  was  not  of 
Montagu  descent  as  far  as  can  be  traced.  She  was  born  in  1690, 
received  a  very  learned  education  in  the  Greek  and  Latin  classics. 
In  17 16  she  accompanied  her  husband  in  his  embassy  to  Constanti- 
nople. To  her  discernment,  Europe  is  indebted  for  the  introduction 
of  smallpox  by  inoculation,  but  before  she  recommended  it  she  made

the  first  experiment  upon  her  own  son,  and  its  success  proved  the 
means  of  disseminating  the  blessings  and  the  continuation  of  life  to 
thousands.  Upon  her  return  to  England  she  became  a  great  friend 
of  the  poet  Pope.  The  letters  of  Lady  Montagu  appeared  before  the 
public  in  1763.  She  possessed  great  talent,  and  inexhaustible 
powers  of  language.  She  died  in  1762,  leaving  one  dau.  Mary  Mon- 
tagu, Baroness  Mountstuart,  married  to  John  Stuart,  Earl  of  Bute  ; 
and  one  only  son  Edward  Wortley  Montagu.  He  was  remarkable 
for  his  eccentricities.  He  ran  away  from  school  and  became  a 
chimney  sweep,  was  restored  by  accident  to  his  parents,  but  again  he 
left  them  to  join  himself  to  a  fisherman,  after  which  he  embarked  as 
a  cabin  boy  for  Spain,  and  hired  himself  there  as  a  servant  to  a 
muleteer.  Here  he  was  discovered  and  prevailed  upon  to  return  to 
his  friends,  who  placed  him  under  the  care  of  a  tutor,  and  with  him 
he  visited  many  foreign  countries.  On  his  return  he  was  elected 
member  of  parliament,  and  conducted  himself  with  a  propriety 
becoming  his  birth  and  fortune.  But  soon  he  again  embarked  for 
the  East.  At  Constantinople,  he  adopted  the  dress  and  the  manners 
of  the  Turks  ;  he  kept  a  numerous  seraglio  of  wives,  he  sat  cross- 
legged,  he  wore  a  long  beard,  and  behaved  with  all  the  pomp  of 
oriental  consequence.  He  died  in  Italy  in  1776  aged  about  62.  He 
was  an  author  of  books  of  merit — among  them,  An  Examination  into 
the  Causes  of  Earthquakes — Observations  on  the  Rise  and  Fall  of 
the  Roman  Empire — Account  of  the  Mountains  of  Arabia — besides 
some  interesting  papers  inserted  in  the  Philosophical  transactions. 


Origin  and  Antiquity  of  the  Name  Montague. 

The  name  came  into  England  in  the  year  1066  from  Normandy, 
and  originated  in  the  Latin  de  monte  acuto,  meaning  "  of  or  from  a 
sharp  or  pointed  mountain  ''  [a  mountain  peak].  It  has  been  written 
in  various  forms  as  de  Monte  Acuto.  Monteacuto,  Montacute,  Mont- 
agute,  Montaigut,  Montaigu.,  Montagu,  Mountagu,  Mountague, 
Montague.  There  is  a  mountain  in  the  Pyrenees  of  considerable 
height  called  Montacuto.  In  the  Department  of  Aisne,  in  France, 
may  be  seen  the  ruins  of  an  old  feudal  Castle,  named  Montaigu, 
situated  in  a  town  of  the  same  name.  This  castle  was  an  important 
fortress  in  the  tenth  century.      It  was  besieged  and  taken  by  Louis

INTRODUCTION. 


d'Outre-mer  in  948,  was  twice  captured  by  the  English,  once  in  1375 
and  again  in  1424,  and  was  finally  taken  by  Charles  VI.  in  1444. 
There  was  also  a  strong  fortress  of  the  name  of  Montaigu,  in  Vendee, 
that  was  twice  besieged  in  the  uprising  of  1793.  There  are  several 
other  places  in  France  bearing  the  name  of  Montaigu  ;  but  that  from 
which  the  English  family  sprang  was  Montagu-les-Bois,  in  the  district 
of  Coutances,  in  Normandy.  Of  this  place  one  writer  says,  "  Its 
ancient  lords  were  famous  in  the  middle  ages."  In  France  there 
were  Lords  of  Montagu,  Counts  of  Chalon,  and  Eudes  ;  there  was 
Pierre  Guerin  de  Montaigu,  Grand  Master  of  the  Knights  of  St.  John 
of  Jerusalem  in  1208;  there  was  Gilles  Aycelin  de-Montai-gut, 
Archbishop  of  Rouen,  and  the  founder  of  the  college  of  Montagu  at 
Paris,  which  existed  from  13 14  till  about  1850.  Two  brothers  of  the 
family  of  this  Archbishop  attained  the  dignity  of  Cardinals.  The 
name  Montagu  is  a  word  of  three  syllables,  pronounced  Mont-a-gue, 
and  has  no  connection  with  the  name  of  two  syllables  Mon-Tague, 
which  is  a  corruption  of  the  Irish  name  of  Mac  Teague,  meaning  the 
son  of  Teague.  Montague,  a  thousand  years  ago  in  Normandy  was 
spelled  Montagu.  In  the  Doomsday  book  of  William  the  Conqueror 
(1066)  it  is  spelled  Montagud,  the  "d"  silent.  The  early  generations 
in  England  spelled  the  name  in  Latin,  Montacute.  This  was  caused 
Camden  says,  on  account  of  continuous  wars  with  France,  there  was 
a  hatred  of  anything  that  was  French,  In  English  records  of  the  14th, 
15th,  and  1 6th  centuries,  the  name  is  often  printed  Mountague.  In 
early  records  in  America  and  upon  tombstones  it  is  spelled  Mountague. 
Co.  records  of  Spotts  and  Orange  Va.,  have  the  name  Mountague 
and  Montecue.  The  name  of  Peter  Montague  on  the  Va.  Muster 
roll  of  1624  is  spelled  Petter  Montecue.  [Montecue  and  Montigue 
are  simply  a  mis-spell.]  The  old  Peerages  in  England  have  the  name 
variously,  Mountague,  Montague  and  Montagu.  The  titled  families 
however  have  invariably  spelled  the  name  Montagu.  This  includes 
the  Viscounts  Montagu,  the  Dukes  of  Montagu,  the  Earls  of  Halifax 
and  Sandwich  and  the  Dukes  of  Manchester,  and  they  undoubtedly 
have  the  most  ancient  way  of  spelling  it.  The  final  "  e,"  as  the  name 
is  commonly  spelled,  adds  nothing  to  it,  though  from  long  usage  one 
may  be  as  correct  as  the  other.

Boveney  Churchyard. 

The  following  beautiful  description  of  the  Ancient  Church  at 
Boveney,  where  the  ancestors  of  Peter  Montague  worshiped,  and  of 
the  ancient  graveyard  where  their  remains  repose,  is  taken  from 
"The  Book  of  the  Thames,"  by  Mr.  and  Mrs.  S.  C.  Hall,  London, 
1859,  and  is  appropriate  in  this  place  as  well  as  worthy  of  preservation. 

"Before  we  reach  Windsor,  however,  we  pass  through  Boveney 
Lock.  There  was  a  fishery  here  from  a  very  early  period ;  and  it  is 
recorded  in  the  annals  of  Windsor  that,  in  1201,  William,  the  son  of 
Richard  de  Windsor,  gave  two  marks  to  the  king,  in  order  that  the 
pool  and  fishery  in  Boveney  might  be  in  the  state  it  was  wont  to  be 
during  the  reign  of  Henry  II.  The  men  of  this,  and  all  other  villages 
near  Windsor,  were  accustomed  to  give  toll  at  Windsor  of  all  their 
merchandize.  When  Eton  College  was  building,  Boveney  and 
Maidenhead  contributed  their  share  of  elm-tree  wood  for  its  con- 
struction. The  village  is  still  but  a  small  group  of  cottages,  retaining 
very  primitive  features.  Let  us  step  ashore  for  a  brief  while,  to  visit 
yon  '  wee '  church,  half  hidden  among  lofty  trees  :  it  is  the  Church 
of  Boveney,  and  is  the  last  of  its  class  we  shall  encounter;  for, 
although  we  may  meet  some  more  aged  and  many  more  picturesque, 
there  will  be  none  along  the  banks  of  the  great  river  that  so  thoroughly 
represent  the  homely  and  unadorned  fanes  where  the  simple  villagers, 
have  been  taught  to  worship.  It  is  very  small,  and  of  the  most 
primitive  construction,  consisting  of  four  walls  merely,  the  chanceL 
end  being  railed  off  by  wood-work.  The  font  is  large  and  simple  in 
character,  and  there  are  traces  of  early  mediaeval  work  in  the  external 
walls ;  the  pulpit  is  Elizabethan,  but  the  open  seats  of  oak  may  be 
much  earlier ;  the  roof  is  arched,  but  has  originally  been  supported 
by  open  timber-work, — the  cross-beams  now  alone  remain.  We  have 
engraved  the  interior  as  an  example  of  one  of  our  sacred  edifices, 
where,  through  many  ages,  sate 

"  The  rude  forefathers  of  the  hamlet." 

After  inspecting  the  interior,  and  wondering  why  so  small  a  church: 
was  ever  built,  we  returned  to  the  churchyard,  and  stood  for  some 
little  time  beneath  the  shadow  of  a  glorious  old  tree,  whose  boughs 
and  foliage  formed  a  protection  against  rain  or  sunshine.  The  old 
withered  woman  who  had  opened  the  church-door  followed,  and 
regretted  the  gentry  should  be  disappointed,  as  there  was  '  nothing  to

see.'  We  differed  from  her,  saying  there  was  a  great  deal  that 
interested  us, — could  anything  be  more  picturesque  or  beautiful  than 
the  churchyard  ?  She  shook  her  head.  '  The  churchyard  was  thick 
with  graves,  some  with  stones  and  some  without,  like  any  other  place 
of  the  sort — a  poor,  melancholy  place  it  was.  She  thought  it  so 
lonely  and  miserable,  and  yet  sketchers  were  always  making  pictures 
of  it ;  and  she  had  seen  a  printed  book  once  with  a  picture  of  it, 
and  its  history  all  done  into  print.  She  could  not  but  think  the 
gentry  had  very  little  to  write  about.  Yes,  there  were  stories  about 
those  who  lay  there — many  stories.  There  was  a  story  of  two 
brothers — wicked  men,  she  called  them — who  died,  she  could  not 
well  tell  how ;  and  as  to  the  things  cut  upon  tombstones,  she  set  no 
count  by  such  grand  words — she  knew  her  own  know  !  People  could 
get  anything  they  liked  cut  on  stones  if  they  paid  for  it.  There  was 
a  cold,  proud  man  who  lived  at  the  Hall  when  she  was  a  child — a 
bad,  cruel  man ;  his  shadow  would  wither  up  the  young  grass,  and 
the  look  of  his  eye  was  as  bad  as  a  curse.  He  died,  as  he  had  lived, 
full  up  of  bitter  riches  :  he  was  not  buried  in  this  churchyard — it  was 
not  grand  enough  for  him — but  in  a  fine  new  one,  where  so  much 
was  put  on  his  tomb  about  his  charity — he  who  would  steal  a  half- 
penny out  of  a  blind  man's  hat — about  his  justice,  who  would  rob  a 
foot  off  the  highway  to  add  to  his  own  field — about  his  being  a  meek 
Christian  ! '  the  woman  laughed,  scornfully ;  '  meek  !  meek !  the 
haughty  reprobate  !  Well,  a  poor  little  lad,  who  had  but  too  good 
reason  to  know  the  falsity  of  the  whole,  from  first  to  last,  wrote  under 
it,  '  It's  all  lies  !  '  and  though  every  one  in  the  place  said  the  lad  was 
a  true  lad,  and  a  brave  lad,  yet  he  lost  his  situation,  and  not  one  in 
the  place  dared  give  him  food  or  shelter,  so  he  left  the  neighborhood 
did  the  lad ;  but  as  sure  as  that  sun  is  shining  above  us,  so  sure  is 
there  One  who  sifts  the  tares  from  the  wheat — yes,  indeed,  the  tares 
from  the  wheat.  And  I  forget  how  it  was,  for  I  married  out  of  the 
village,  and  just  came  back  ten  years  ago,  like  a  crow  to  the  old  nest 
— only  he  grew  rich,  through  honest  labour ;  and  his  son  is  in  the 
Hall  now ;  and  the  great  tombstone  was  cleared  away,  and  nothing 
to  be  seen  now  but  a  broad  slab,  with  never  a  word  on  it,  over  the 
bad  man's  dust  and  ashes.' 

She  was  a  strange,  weird-looking  old  creature,  with  odds  and  ends 
of  information  :  like  an  artist  who  can  paint  a  distance,  but  not  a 
foreground,  the  past  was  with  her  light  and  bright  enough,  but  the

present  was  already  her  grave — she  could  tell  us  nothing  of  the 
present.  She  still  leant  against  the  old  tree,  and  we  were  so  soothed 
by  the  silence  and  tranquility  of  the  scene,  that  we  lingered  among 
the  tombs,  when  suddenly  we  heard  a  quick,  light  step  behind  us, 
and  before  we  could  turn  around  to  ascertain  whence  it  came,  a  thin 
hand  rested  on  our  arm,  and  a  pale  face,  the  lips  parted  over  white 
and  glittering  teeth,  and  the  eyes,  deep  sunk  and  restless,  were 
advanced  so  close  to  our  own  that  we  started  back  almost  in  terror. 
'  Can  you  tell  me  the  grave  ? '  she  inquired  eagerly,  but  in  a  low 
voice  :  '  oh !  if  you  know  it,  do  tell  me !  I  know  he  is  buried  here — 
they  all  own  that,  but  they  will  not  tell  me  where ;  do  tell  me — I  am 
sure  you  will — come,  make  haste  ! ' 

The  lady  was  dressed  in  faded  mourning,  the  crape  was  drawn  and 
crumpled,  and  the  widow's  cap  beneath  her  bonnet  did  not  conceal 
a  quantity  of  fair  hair,  which  looked  the  fairer  from  being  streaked 
with  grey. 

'  What  grave  ? '  we  inquired  of  the  pale,  panting  little  creature,  who 
wrung  her  hands  impatiently,  '  what  grave  ? ' 

'Oh!  you  know — my  husband's  !  Round  and  round,  across,  along 
- — from  the  first  tap  of  the  reveille  to  the  last  drum-roll  at  night,  I 
seek  his  grave.  I  throw  myself  down  and  talk  to  the  dead  and 
buried,  but  they  tell  me  to  let  them  alone :  and  they  say  he  is  not 
here,  but  /  know  he  is.  We  went  out  in  the  same  ship  and  returned 
in  the  same  ship,  so  we  must  be  both  here,  you  know.  We  went  out 
in  the  same  ship,'  she  repeated,  mournfully,  'and  they  buried  him 
here.  Oh  !  have  pity — have  pity,  and  help  me  to  find  his  grave  ! ' 
She  hurried  us  on,  pointing  to  each  green  mound  we  passed — '  It  is 
not  that,  nor  that,  nor  that —  no,  no  !  do  not  look  at  the  tombstones, 
there  was  no  time  to  put  one  up — the  enemy  was  too  fast  on  us  for 
that ! '  She  cast  herself  on  her  knees  beside  a  grave  close  to  a  bank, 
murmuring  '  Charles  ! '  into  the  long  grass,  and  holding  up  her  finger 
to  indicate  that  we  should  keep  silence,  expecting  an  answer. 

At  the  instant  a  tall,  venerable  gentleman  entered  the  lonely  grave- 
yard— 'Jane,  my  child — my  darling,'  he  said,  tenderly,  'here  again! 
Come,  my  child,  we  can  look  for  the  grave  to-morrow.'  The  old 
man's  eyes  were  filled  with  tears  ;  but  she  did  not  heed  him,  mur- 
muring amid  the  grass.  'Forgive  her,'  he  said,  '  my  poor  child's 
mind  wanders  :  her  husband  was  killed  at  Inkerman,  and  she  fancies 
he  is  buried  where  they  were  married  ! '   It  required  some  little  force 


44 


INTRODUCTION. 


to  raise  her  from  the  sward,  and  then,  after  a  little  struggle,  he  raised 
her  in  his  arms,  her  head  resting  quietly  on  his  shoulder — the  large 
tree  the  next  moment  hid  them  from  our  sight." 


The  Grave  of  Peter  Montague. 

In  the  year  1849  William  Henry  Montague  of  Boston,  one  of  the 
founders  of  the  N.  E.  Historical  Genealogical  Society  of  Boston, 
being  much  interested  in  Montague  family  history,  held  a  lengthy 
correspondence  with  two  representative  Virginia  Montague  gentlemen 
namely,  the  late  Judge  Robert  L.  Montague  of  Middlesex  and  the 
late  Col.  E.  T.  Montague,  then  of  the  Treasury  Dept.  at  Washington. 
Judge  R.  L.  Montague  was  at  that  time  residing  in  Lancaster  Co.  on 
the  road  that  leads  from  Monaskon  wharf  to  Lancaster  C.  H.  and  in 
one  of  his  letters  to  Wra,  H.  Montague,  he  stated  that  he  had  visited 
the  grave  of  Peter  Montague  which  was  situated  on  the  north  bank 
of  the  river  Rappahannock  in  Lancaster,  that  the  tombstone  was 
standing,  though  much  defaced  by  the  hand  of  time.  And  he  added 
that  other  tombstones  there  indicated  the  marriage  of  the  Montagues 
with  the  Balls  and  it  was  possible  that  Washington  may  have  been  of 
Montague  descent  as  such  a  tradition  existed  in  his  family.  Miss 
Mary  Montague  of  Granby,  Mass.,  was  at  that  time  compiling  a 
history  of  the  Montague  family  and  Wm.  H.  Montague  of  Boston 
sent  to  her  copies  of  his  correspondence  with  these  Southern  Mon- 
tague gentlemen.  She  died  in  1880  leaving  her  work  unfinished  and 
her  manuscript  was  sent  to  the  compiler  of  the  present  work  by  her 
executor.  He  thus  obtained  the  knowledge  of  Peter  Montague's 
grave.  His  subsequent  searches  into  the  Va.  Montague  records  of 
the  past,  assured  him  that  only  one  marriage  had  taken  place  between 
the  Montagues  and  Balls,  and  he  felt  confident  that  if  a  tombstone 
could  be  found  indicating  such  marriage,  the  grave  of  Peter  Mon- 
tague would  also  be  found  near  by,  on  the  testimony  of  Judge 
Montague  who  said  it  was  near  a  stone  that  indicated  a  Montague 
and  Ball  marriage.  Therefore  on  his  visit  to  Lancaster  in  June, 
1893,  he  made  an  effort  to  find  such  a  spot.  After  inquiry,  the 
compiler  of  this  work  learned  that  there  was  but  one  spot  known  to 


INTRODUCTION. 


45 


any  one  now  living  in  the  Co.  where  there  were  Montague  graves. 
In  company  with  Mr.  Walter  Gresham,  the  postmaster  of  Lancaster, 
he  went  to  that  spot,  situated  in  what  appeared  to  be  a  primeval 
forest.  On  arrival  he  first  saw  the  well  defined  outline  of  the  foun- 
dation ruins  of  an  old  colonial  dwelling  house.  This  foundation  is 
of  brick,  and  the  bricks  are  twice  as  large  as  modern  bricks,  showing 
that  they  were  the  kind  made  by  the  first  settlers.  Knowing  the 
custom  [which  still  exists  in  Va.]  of  burying  their  dead  in  the  rear  of 
their  dwelling  and  not  in  a  general  graveyard,  he  began  a  search  of 
the  ground  in  the  rear  of  the  ruins  of  the  old  colonial  house,  and 
soon  found  lying  on  the  ground,  broken  into  fragments,  (some  of  the 
pieces  missing)  the  headstone  with  the  inscription,  "  Here  lies  the 
body  of  Mrs.  Hannah  Montague  wife  of  William  Montague  and 
daughter  of  Capt.  Richard  and  Sarah  Ball."  Near  by  were  the  head- 
stones of  Capt.  Richard  Ball,  1726  ;  of  Sarah  Selden,  dau.  of  Capt. 
Richard  Ball  [and  sister  of  Hannah  Montague]  ;  and  of  John  Selden 
her  husband.  All  of  these  stones  were  dark  slate  color,  and  lay  upon 
the  ground  broken  in  pieces.  Here  then  was  a  stone  indicating  a 
Montague  and  Ball  marriage,  the  grave  of  Peter  ought  to  be  near 
here.  After  a  further  search  a  well  defined  grave  was  found  some 
yards  distant,  heavily  bricked  with  a  solid  cube  of  colonial  bricks 
extending  apparently  deep  in  the  ground,  but  not  above  it,  and  laid 
in  mortar.  Deeply  imbedded  in  this  masonry  there  had  originally 
been  an  upright  stone,  which  was  now  broken  off  close  to  the  foun- 
dation, and  lay  face  down  upon  the  ground,  while  on  top  of  it, 
covering  it  up  was  a  large  fallen  tree  much  decayed  but  heavy.  This 
stone  was  white  or  gray,  showed  great  age,  had  become  decayed 
through  age,  so  that  it  had  in  places  crumbled  into  small  flakes,  that 
lay  about  it.  It  was  so  aged,  that  with  a  little  handling  it  would 
crumble  all  to  pieces,  and  from  its  position  imbedded  in  colonial 
bricks  it  is  beyond  all  doubt  the  grave  of  a  first  settler.  It  is  different 
in  material  from  the  stones  of  1726  and  at  first  sight  of  it,  the  mind 
is  convinced  of  its  antiquity.  Mr.  Eugene  George  of  Lancaster,  a 
most  kind  and  courteous  young  gentleman,  kindly  volunteered  to  get 
horses  and  a  man  and  have  that  large  log  removed  from  the  stone, 
which  was  done,  but  it  was  found  that  any  inscription  upon  it  had 
been  entirely  obliterated,  and  the  stone  had  cleaved  off  in  flakes  from 
extreme  old  age.  Nothing  whatever  was  upon  it  to  identify  it.  There 
are  no  other  graves  in  that  locality.     The  writer  learned  that  when

INTRODUCTION. 


Judge  Montague  wrote  that  letter  in  1849,  he  was  residing  in  the 
Co.  of  Lancaster  only  seven  miles  from  this  very  spot,  and  that  the 
road  from  his  house  to  the  village  of  Lancaster  ran  within  300  yards 
of  this  spot,  and  that  every  time  he  visited  the  centre  he  passed 
within  300  yards  of  it.  Taking  this  fact  in  connection  with  the  fact 
that  no  other  ancient  Montague  graves  are  known  in  the  Co.  and 
that  this  spot  agrees  with  what  he  wrote  about  Montague  and  Ball 
marriage,  and  that  one  grave  and  only  one  of  a  first  settler  is  there, 
there  seems  to  be  no  room  for  doubt  that  this  is  the  place  he  visited 
in  1849,  and  that  upon  his  testimony,  the  old  grave  is  that  of  Peter 
Montague,  because  he  was  at  that  time  able  to  read  the  inscription, 
though  he  then  said  it  was  much  defaced  by  time.  The  probability 
that  this  is  Peter's  grave  is  as  strong  as  anything  can  be  without  the 
actual  inscription  on  the  stone  to  prove  it.  The  evidence  is  con- 
vincing when  it  is  remembered  that  there  was  only  one  marriage 
between  the  Montagues  and  Balls,  namely  that  of  this  Hannah,  dau. 
of  Capt.  Richard  Ball,  and  when  Judge  Montague  wrote  in  1849  that 
he  visited  Peter's  grave,  found  the  headstone  standing  but  defaced 
by  time  and  referred  to  another  stone  there  which  proved  a  marriage 
between  Montague  and  Ball,  this  is  the  place  he  visited,  if  it  was  not, 
how  could  he  have  mentioned  the  Montague  and  Ball  tombstone  ?  In 
other  words,  the  identification  of  Hannah  (Ball)  Montague's  grave 
also  identifies  Peter's  grave,  although  the  headstone  has  become  so 
obliterated  it  cannot  be  read.  Some  doubter  may  say,  how  do  you 
account  for  the  burial  of  Peter  Montague  on  a  Ball  plantation  ?  The 
opinion  of  the  compiler  is  that  the  spot  was  a  plantation  of  Capt. 
Richard  Ball,  but  not  an  original  Ball  homestead.  The  following  is 
the  evidence  to  support  it.  Capt.  Richard  Ball  in  his  will,  bequeaths 
as  follows :  "  To  my  dau.  Sarah  Selden  I  give  the  plantation  where  I 
now  live  and  all  the  land  below  the  road  from  Col.  Wm.  Ball's  to 
Cundiff's ;  to  my  dau.  Margaret  Ball  I  give  my  plantation  and  land  at 
the  mouth  of  Carotoman  river ;  to  my  dau.  Hannah  [Montague]  I 
give  my  old  plantation  and  all  the  land  above  the  road  from  Col. 
Wm.  Ball's  to  Cundiff's."  Here  we  have  three  estates,  the  plantation 
at  Carotoman,  the  old  plantation,  and  the  new  one,  where  he  lived 
when  he  made  his  will  and  where  he  died.  This  new  plantation  was 
evidently  a  purchase,  the  old  Ball  homesteads  were  at  Carotoman  17 
miles  distant.  Records  also  prove,  that  as  early  as  1700  the  two 
sons  of  Peter  had  left  Lancaster  and  were  living  on,  or  near  Mon-

tague  island  in  Middlesex.  And  the  evidence  is  that  they  had  sold 
the  Lancaster  property  and  that  Capt.  Richard  Bali  had  become  the 
subsequent  owner  of  it.  This  explains  why  Peter's  grave  and  the 
grave  of  Capt.  Ball  are  on  the  same  plantation.  This  purchase  now 
contains  the  graves  of  Capt.  Richard  Ball,  his  daughters  Sarah  Selden 
and  Hannah  Montague.  John  Selden  husband  of  Sarah,  and  the  tomb 
of  Peter  Montague,  and  was  the  place  where  Peter  Montague  lived, 
died,  and  was  buried  67  years  before.  Capt.  Richard  Ball's  tomb  is 
accounted  for  there  because  it  is  the  place  where  he  lived  at  the  time 
of  his  death.  John  and  Sarah  Seidell's  graves  are  accounted  for  there 
because  Capt.  Richard  gave  the  place  to  them  in  his  will  and  it  was 
their  home.  Peter  Montague's  grave  is  accounted  for  there,  because 
either  Capt.  Richard  Ball  1  or  his  father )  had  purchased  the  place 
where  Peter  Montague  lived,  died,  and  was  buried.  Hannah  [Ball] 
Montague's  grave  is  accounted  for  there  because  she  was  buried  by 
the  side  of  her  father  Capt.  Ball.  Her  own  plantation  given  her  by 
her  father  was  not  far  distant  and.  as  this  compiler  understands  it. 
was  separated  from  that  of  her  sister  Sarah,  only  by  the  road  which 
now  passes  from  Lancaster  to  Heathville  [vide  the  will].  The  com- 
piler takes  no  credit  to  himself  in  this  matter  beyond  identifying  the 
spot  visited  by  Judge  Montague  in  1S49.  All  the  honor  of  rinding 
the  grave  of  Peter,  the  English  Emigrant,  belongs  to  the  late  Judge 
Montague  of  Middlesex,  and  to  his  honored  memory  which  is  revered 
by  us  all.  He  not  only  found  it.  but  left  a  record  by  which  it  was 
possible  to  identify  it.  The  spot  is  located  half  a  mile  from  Lancaster, 
C.  H.  Take  the  road  to  Heathville  [Co.  seat  of  Northumberland] 
for  half  a  mile,  then  turn  into  an  old  wood  road  on  your  left,  which 
follow  for  300  yards  into  the  woods  and  you  will  reach  the  place.

INTRODUCTION. 


A  tradition  has  existed  for  fifty  years  or  more,  that  George  Wash- 
ington was  of  Montague  descent,  through  his  mother  Mary  Ball.  It 
probably  originated  from  the  fact  that  William  Montague  married, 
1727,  adau.  of  Capt.  Richard  Ball,  who  was  Mary  Ball's  cousin  [their 
fathers  were  brothers].  This  subject  has  been  thoroughly  investi- 
gated by  Rev.  Horace  E.  Hayden  in  his  Va.  Genealogies,  published 
Wilkes-Barre,  Pa.,  189 1.  The  compiler  also  has  made  a  thorough 
search,  and  left  no  means  untried  to  obtain  the  truth.  The  result  is, 
that  the  only  place  where  such  descent  could  be  possible,  was 
through  Mary  Ball's  mother  who  was,  before  Col.  Ball  married  her, 
a  Mrs.  Mary  Johnson,  a  widow,  of  Lancaster  Co.,  Va.  A  tradition 
exists  in  the  Ball  family  that  Mrs.  Mary  Johnson  was  born  in  England. 
This  tradition  has  been  traced  to  Mrs.  Ann  Shearman,  whose  mother 
was  Esther  Ball,  the  half  sister  of  Mary  Ball.  If  it  is  true,  that  she 
was  born  in  England,  then — any  descent  from  Peter  Montague  was 
impossible.  No  record  has  been  found  to  show  the  maiden  name  of 
Mrs.  Mary  Johnson,  or  who  she  was  before  her  marriage  to  Johnson. 
If  she  was  a  Miss  Montague,  she  would  have  to  be  a  daughter  of  one 
of  the  sons  of  the  emigrant  Peter  Montague.  One  of  his  sons  did 
have  a  daughter  whose  name  was  Mary  Montague,  but  church  records 
prove  that  she  married,  Oct.  24,  1682,  Thomas  Payne,  and  no  record 
exists  to  show  that  she  ever  afterward  married  any  one  else.  Records 
of  that  time  and  locality  are  lost,  and  the  maiden  name  of  Mrs.  Mary 
Johnson  [Washington's  grandmother]  will  probably  never  be  known. 


PETER  MONTAGUE 

AND  HIS  DESCENDANTS. 


FIRST  GENERATION  AND  CHILDREN. 
I. 

Peter  Montague,  was  the  son  of  Peter  and  Eleanor  Montague  of 
Boveney,  in  parish  of  Burnham,  Buckinghamshire,  England.  His 
mother,  Eleanor,  was  the  daughter  of  William  Allen  of  Burnham  in 
the  same  parish.  Peter  was  born  in  1603.  He  was  an  elder  brother 
of  Richard  Montague,  the  ancestor  of  the  New  England  Montagues. 
[See  pedigree  chart  in  the  Introduction,  where  the  pedigree  of  Peter's 
family  in  England  will  be  found  in  full.]  Boveney,  the  place  where 
Peter  was  born,  is  a  small  hamlet,  picturesquely  situated  on  the  river 
Thames,  twenty-three  miles  above  London,  three  miles  from  Eton 
college,  that  was  founded  in  1440  by  Henry  VI.,  while  on  the  oppo- 
site side  of  the  river  in  Berkshire  is  Windsor  Castle,  the  residence  of 
the  Kings  and  Queens  of  England  for  the  past  900  years.  In  this 
vicinity  the  ancestors  of  Peter  had  resided,  probably  for  200  years 
before  his  birth.  Here  his  childhood  and  youth  were  passed,  and 
here  he  probably  obtained  a  fair  education,  though  there  is  no  record 
that  he  was  ever  a  member  of  Eton  college.  His  uncle  William 
Montague  was  a  fellow  of  Kings  college,  Cambridge,  and  also  of 
Eton.  Richard  Montague,  the  celebrated  divine,  and  bishop  of  Nor- 
wich, was  his  father's  cousin.  Peter's  family  consisted  of  his  parents, 
an  elder  brother  William,  two,  younger  than  himself- — Richard  and 
Robert — and  three  sisters,  Elizabeth,  Anne  and  Margaret.  His 
father  was  an  agriculturist,  or  was  engaged  in  raising  sheep,  cattle, 
hogs,  &c.  This  County  was  celebrated  at  that  time  for  its  beech 
trees,  the  nuts  of  which  were  said  to  be  very  nutritious  for  the  feeding 
of  swine,  that  roamed  through  the  woods  at  will.  At  the  age  of  18 
years  Peter  emigrated  to  Virginia,  in  America.    What  motive  led  him 


DESCENDANTS   OF   PETER  MONTAGUE. 


to  this  step  is  not  known.  The  oppressions  of  royalty,  which  at  a 
later  date  sent  so  many  to  America,  had  not  then  begun.  The 
Kingdom  was  at  peace  with  all  the  world,  and  the  King  was  loved 
by  his  people.  There  is  a  tradition*  in  one  branch  of  Peter's 
descendants  which  can  be  traced  back  as  far  as  1730,  to  the  effect 
that  "  Peter  was  'rather  wild,'  that  he  ran  away  from  home,  went  to 
America,  and  not  being  '  in  funds '  had  not  the  cash  to  pay  for  his 
passage  and  was  sold  for  his  passage  money.  The  first  half-day's 
work  he  did  ruined  his  hands  so  that  he  had  to  rest.  To  pass  the 
time  he  began  to  read  his  master's  books,  who  caught  him  reading 
Latin,  and  soon  obtained  for  him  the  position  of  a  school  teacher." 
The  record  of  Peter's  life  in  Va.  rather  precludes  the  idea  that  he 

*  This  tradition  is  traced  to  Latane  Montague,  son  of  Abraham  of  Essex  Co.,  who  was 
born  about  1731,  and  if  he  received  it  from  his  father  it  would  carry  the  date  of  it  to  A.  D. 
1700.  It  was  a  custom  in  the  early  settlement  of  America  to  sell  political  prisoners  from 
England  for  a  term  of  years  by  auction.  There  seems  to  be  an  impression  that  Virginia  was 
settled  by  convicts  from  England.  No  tradition  ever  existed  which  has  so  little  foundation 
in  fact.  It  has  been  stated  that  Hotten's  Emigrant  Lists  were  responsible  for  the  tradition. 
We  have  examined  Hotten's  lists  but  do  not  find  a  single  record  showing  that  prisoners  of 
any  kind  were  sent  there  from  England.  The  English  used  the  Island  of  Barbadoes  in  the 
West  Indies  for  the  safe  keeping  of  political  prisoners,  just  as  St.  Helena  was  selected  for 
Bonaparte.  There  is  a  difference  between  a  convict  and  a  political  offender  such  as  Hotten 
calls  ^convicted  rebels."  Charles  I.,  Anne  Bolin,  Mary  Queen  of  Scots,  the  first  Napoleon, 
and  hundreds  of  other  royal  personages  have  been  political  prisoners.  At  the  time  of  the 
Monmouth  rebellion,  1685,  England  sent  a  large  number  of  "rebels"  convicted  of  being  con- 
cerned in  that  rebellion,  to  Barbadoes,  men  and  women  alike,  many  were  the  gentry,  or 
persons  brought  up  and  nurtured  in  refinement  and  wealth.  On  the  arrival  of  each  ship  these 
unfortunate  prisoners  were  sold  by  auction  for  a  term  of  years  varying  from  five  to  ten  years 
and  the  miseries  inflicted  upon  them  have  never  been  half  told,  delicately  reared  ladies  often 
were  made  to  work  in  the  fields.  Those  who  lived  to  serve  their  time  out  were  granted  a 
ticket  to  go  where  they  pleased.  A  few  such  went  to  Virginia  and  New  England  but  the 
greater  proportion  of  them  went  to  St.  Christopher,  and  other  islands,  and  back  to  England. 
Every  such  record  in  Hotten's  lists  has  been  copied,  with  the  result  that  "convicted  rebels" 
who  served  their  time  out,  who  went  to  New  England,  [mostly  to  Boston]  were  94 ;  those 
who  went  to  Virginia  were  59 ;  those  who  went  to  Carolina  were  36.  Thus  as  many  went  to 
New  England  as  to  both  Va.  and  Carolina  combined. 

A  study  of  the  various  Co.  histories  of  England,  and  of  the  early  emigration  to  both  Va. 
and  New  England,  will  show  that  the  early  emigrants  of  Virginia  and  New  England,  for  the 
most  part  bore  the  same  names,  came  from  the  same  English  Counties,  and  that  the  ancestry 
of  both  will  meet  in  those  English  Counties.  Surely  no  people  can  have  a  stronger  claim  to 
the  same  ancestry. 

Most,  if  not  all  of  the  early  Va.  settlers  left  England  in  a  legal  manner,  that  is  they  took 
the  oath  of  allegiance  to  the  King  and  brought  certificates  from  their  ministers  that  they 
were  loyal  to  the  Church  of  England.  After  the  accession  of  Charles  I.  to  the  throne,  there 
was  a  large  emigration,  mostly  to  New  England,  caused  by  excessive  and  unjust  taxation. 
The  "  Ship  Money  "  tax  drove  thousands  to  New  England.  They  were  "subsidy  men"  that 
is,  men  liable  to  the  payment  of  a  subsidy  to  the  Crown,  and  of  this  the  "  ship  money  "  was 
the  most  hateful.  These  men  would  not  take  the  oath  of  allegiance  and  supremacy,  and 
must  have  left  secretly,  and  of  such  no  record  of  departure  would  exist.  It  has  not  been 
found  that  any  of  this  emigration  went  to  Va.  Hotten's  Lists  record  only  those  who  came 
legally  and  the  larger  part  of  the  work  is  a  record  of  St. Christopher,  Barbadoes,  and  Virginia. 


DESCENDANTS  OF   PETER  MONTAGUE. 


was  "wild"  to  any  alarming  extent.  If  he  ran  away,  records  at  least 
show  that  he  was  among  those  who  came  to  America  openly  and  in 
a  legal  manner.  The  record  is  that  he  was  "  duly  examined  by  the 
Minister  at  Gravesend  [Eng.]  touching  his  conformitie  to  the  orders- 
and  discipline  of  the  Church  of  England  and  took  the  oath  of  alle- 
giance and  supremicie  to  the  King.v  It  is  true  he  was  under  age, 
being  only  18.  and  it  is  also  true  that  no  schools  were  founded  until 
the  arrival  of  the  company  with  whom  he  came.  It  is  quite  possible 
that  he  may  have  been  one  of  the  founders  of  the  first  school 
established  in  Virginia. 

The  ancient  name  of  Virginia  appears  to  have  been  Wingandacoa, 
it  received  the  name  of  Virginia  in  honor  of  England's  Virgin  Queen 
— Elizabeth.  She  died  March  24.  1602-3  which  was  the  same  year 
that  Peter  Montague  was  born.  This  Queen  was  of  Montague 
descent  through  her  grandmother  Elizabeth,  clau.  of  Edward  IV.  On 
the  same  day  and  year  of  her  death  James  the  VI.  of  Scotland  was 
proclaimed  James  the  First,  King  of  England.  He  too  was  of  Mon- 
tague descent  through  both  his  mother.  Mary  Queen  of  Scots,  and 
his  father.  Henry  lord  Dernly*.  It  was  during  the  reign  of  this 
King  James,  and  under  his  special  care  and  protection,  that  the  first 
Colony  was  established  in  Virginia. 

Little  could  even  the  most  sanguine  of  the  early  emigrants  to 
America  have  contemplated  the  subsequent  effect  which  their  action 
would  work  upon  the  world's  history.  Many  of  them  were  men  of 
small  means  but  they  possessed  large  hearts  and  consciences.  They 
were  the  seed  grains  from  which  the  mighty  Republic  has  sprung. 
Virginia  was  first  visited  by  Sir  Walter  Raleigh  in  the  year  15S4  :  to 
whom  the  first  Letters  Patent  were  granted  tor  making  a  Plantation 
there.  But  no  Colony  was  sent  thither  till  the  year  1606.  The  first 
to  any  purpose  was  in  the  year  1607.  under  the  conduct  of  Capt. 
Gosnoll.  John  Smith,  and  Mr.  Edward  Maria  Wingfield  who  carried 
a  colony  thither  of  100  persons,  but  of  these  many  died  of  sickness,  or 

*  Edmund  Mortimer  Earl  of  March,  grandson  of  William  Montague,  by  his  dau.  Philippa 
married  Philippa,  dau.  of  Lionel  Duke  of  Clarence,  son  of  King  Edward  III.  From  this 
marriage  was  descended  Edward  IV.  King  of  England  and  a  long  line  of  royal  personages. 
Mary  Queen  of  Scots  and  her  husband  lord  Dernly  were  cousins.  She  was  of  Montague 
descent  through  her  grandmother  Margaret,  the  aunt  of  Queen  Elizabeth  and  sister  of  Henry 
VIII.  who  was  married  to  James  IV.  of  Scotland.  He  was  slain  at  Flodden  Field,  and 
Margaret  re-married  Archibald  Douglas  Earl  of  Angus  and  their  dau.  Margaret  was  the 
mother  of  Henry  lord  Dernly  by  her  marriage  with  Mathew  Stewart  Earl  of  Lennox. — [See

were  slain  by  the  savages.  A  new  supply  came  in  the  year  1608,  of  a 
hundred  and  twenty  persons  under  the  conduct  of  Captain  Nelson. 
.After  which  was  sent  another  supply  of  three  score  and  ten  persons, 
and  in  the  year  1609,*  a  third  supply  came,  of  five  hundred  persons 
under  a  Patent  granted  to  Sir  Thomas  West,  lord  Delaware,  but  con- 
ducted thither  by  Sir  Thomas  Gates,  Sir  George  Summers,  and 
others.  In  the  year  161 1  was  a  fourth  supply  of  three  hundred  men 
under  the  conduct  of  Sir  Thomas  Gates.  In  the  year  16 12  two  other 
.supplies  were  sent  of  forty  men  in  each.  In  the  year  16 18  Lord 
Delaware  came,  with  a  supply  of  two  hundred  people  and  soon  after 
he  died  there.  In  1620  eleven  ships  were  sent  over  with  twelve 
hundred  and  sixteen  persons,  and  now  they  founded  themselves  into 
Corporations.  In  the  year  162 1  Sir  Francis  Wyatt  came  over  as 
Governor  of  the  Colony,  in  company  with  thirteen  hundred  men, 
women  and  children,  and  now  they  founded  schools  and  courts  of 
justice ;  and  the  plantation  was  extended  140  miles  up,  on  both  sides 
of  the  James  river.  With  this  company  was  Peter  Montague.  He 
came  in  the  ship  "  Charles  "  and  landed  in  Virginia  in  the  month  of 
November,  162 1.  The  following  persons  came  in  the  same  ship  at 
the  same  time  and  were  his  fellow  passengers  :  Randall  Crew  age 
17,  John  Hely  age  21,  Robert  Manuell  [or  Mannell]  age  22,  William 
Lusam  age  24,  William  Field  age  20,  Roger  Ruce  age  — ,  Adam 
Thorogood  age  15,  Niccolas  Browne  age  15.  Three  years  later  two 
of  these  persons,  William  Lusam  and  William  Field  are  found  to  be 
engaged  upon  the  same  plantation  with  Peter. 

Where  he  went,  or  what  he  did  for  the  first  two  years,  no  record 
has  been  found  to  say.  In  a  list  of  the  living  and  dead  in  Va.,  taken 
Feb'y  16,  1623,  his  name  does  not  appear.  He  may  have  visited  the 
Bermudas  during  this  time,  or  the  list  itself  may  be  at  fault.  In  the 
Muster  Roll  of  the  inhabitants  of  Va.,  taken  Jan'y  23,  1624,  his  name 
is  found  as  residing  on  the  plantation  of  Capt.  Samuel  Mathews  at 
James  City.  This  Samuel  Mathews  was  afterward  Governor  of  the

James  Montague.  [Hen.  Va.  Stat.  p.  81,  VI.  1.]  The  James  Montague  here  mentioned  was 
son  of  Sir  Edward  Montagu  and  brother  of  Henry,  the  first  Earl  of  Manchester.  He  was 
first,  master  of  Sidney  College,  Cambridge,  where  he  was  educated,  afterward  dean  of  the 
Chapel  Royal,  and  then  of  Worcester.  In  1603  he  was  made  Bishop  of  Bath  and  Wells,  and 
in  161 1  Bishop  of  Winchester.    He  did  not  come  to  America.

Xo  further  record  of  him  has  been  found  until  the  year  1637.  The 
State  Land  Registry  Office  of  Va.  at  Richmond,  has  these  entries. 
Book  1.  p.  463,  "Peter  Montague  was  granted,  Aug't  22,  1637.  150* 
acres  of  land  in  the  upper  County  of  New  Norfolk."  Book  1.  p.  610,

acres  in  the  same  County.  Dec.  18,  1645."  From  1624  to  1637, 
thirteen  years  !  he  had  reached  the  age  of  thirty-four — had  probably 
married,  and  from  his  continuing  to  enter  land  in  Upper  Xorfolk.  no

probably  his  younger  brother.  Associated  with  him  was  David  Sands  the  minister.  Their 
plant  was  at  Tames  City.  Campbell's  Hist,  of  Va.,  p.  209,  says,  "  Capt.  Samuel  Mathews

makers at  work,  had  forty  negro  servants  whom  he  brought  up  to  mechanical  trades.  He 
sowed  large  crops  of  wheat  and  barley.  He  also  supplied  vessels  trading  with  Va.  with  beef.. 
He  had  plenty  of  cows,  a  fine  dairy,  a  large  number  of  hogs  and  poultry.  In  1656  he  was 
governor  of  the  Colony.''  He  married  a  dau.  of  Sir  Thomas  Hinton.  Capt.  Mathews  went 
to  England  on  business  for  the  Colony  m  1657  and  died  there.  Lord  Amherst  was  Governor 
in  1658. — [See  Blake's  Biog.  Diet.  N.  V.,  1835.]  The  following  from  Mr.  Alex.  Brown.  Nor- 
wood. Va..  author  of  "Genesis  of  U.  S."  :  Col.  Samuel  Mathews  was  sent  to  England  as 
agent  for  Va.  in  1652.  He  returned  to  Virginia  in  1657.  On  March  13,  1657-8  he  was  chosen 
by  the  Assembly  to  act  as  Governor  until  the  next  Assembly,  or  until  "  the  further  pleasure 
of  the  supreme  power  of  England  shall  be  knowne."  On  March  7,  1658-9  the  Assembly 
elected  him  Governor  for  two  years.  He  died  during  his  term  of  office  in  Jan'y.  1659-60,  and 
at  the  next  meeting  of  the  Assembly,  in  March,  1659-60,  Berkeley  was  chosen  to  succeed  him. 
His  second  wife,  the  widow  of  Abraham  Percy  was  when  Percy  married  her  the  widow  of 
Capt.  Francis  West.  Mathews  left  two  sons  (Thomas  and  Samuel)  by  his  first  wife  and  very 
probably  other  sons  and  daughters.  i;  Founders  of  Maryland,"  by  Rev.  E.  D.  Xeill,  p.  49,

little  distance  above  Newport  News.  The  following  from  Mr.  Paul  Caine,  Louisville.  Ky.  : 
Capt.  Sam'l  Mathews  came  to  Va.,  1622;  was  commissioner  to  examine  into  the  condition  of 
the  Colony,  1623 ;  Commissioner  of  Warwick  Co.  1631,  Member  of  the  Council  1624-44,  elected

Va.  Two  sons  were  certainly  the  issue  of  the  first  marriage,  namely  Thomas  Mathews  of 
Stafford  Co.,  Member  of  House  of  Burgesses,  1676,  supposed  to  be  author  of  T.  M:s  account 
of  Bacon's  rebellion,  and  Lieut.  Col.  Samuel  Mathews  of  Warwick  Co..  Member  of  House  of 
Burgesses,  April,  1652-1653-1654,  Member  of  Council,  1655,  d.  1670,  leaving  a  son  John  then

to  emigrate  to  Virginia,  50  acres  for  each  person  so  induced,  their  names  were  William  Jones, 
Thomas  Redbye.  and  Mary  Harford.  "  In  Hotten's  emigrant  lists,  there  is  a  William 
Jones,  age  17,  and  another  William  Jones,  age  21,  both  came  in  the  same  ship,  the  "  Thomas

Upper  Norfolk  consisted  in  what  is  now  known  as  Nansemond 
County,  and  the  present  Norfolk  and  Princess  Anne  Counties  were 
called  lower  Norfolk  until  1691.  The  Clerk's  office  and  all  the 
records  of  Nansemond  were  destroyed  by  fire  in  1736  [Hening's 
Statutes,  Vol.  4,  p.  526],  and  all  the  records  were  again  destroyed  by 
fire  in  February,  1866,  and  the  history  of  Peter  Montague  during 
these  years  is  entirely  and  irrevocably  lost.  It  is  known,  however, 
that  he  resided  in  Nansemond  in  1652  and  1653.  He  represented 
that  Co.  in  the  House  of  Burgesses  under  dates  of  Nov.  25,  1652, 
and  July  5,  1653,  and  Col.  Samuel  Mathews  was  a  member  from  Co. 
of  Warwick  during  the  same  time  [Hen.  Va.  Stat.  Vol.  1,  pp.  373- 
379].  His  children  were  probably  born  in  this  Co.  That  his  mind 
often  reverted  to  his  family  in  England  is  evidenced  by  the  fact  that 
his  children  are  named  after  his  brothers  and  sisters  in  his  native 
country,  and  the  names  of  William,  Peter,  Ann,  Margaret  and  Eliza- 
beth are  perpetuated  in  the  new  world.  Having  still  another  daugh- 
ter he  named  her  after  his  mother, — Ellen  (or  Eleanor).  This  is 
regarded  as  corroborative  evidence  of  the  correctness  of  his  pedigree 
as  stated  in  the  Introduction.  Of  the  exact  date  of  the  birth  of  his 
children  no  record  exists.  There  is  no  doubt  that  they  were  faith- 
fully recorded  in  the  church  records  of  that  County,  but  those  records 
have  shared  the  fate  of  other  early  church  records  of  Va.  No  church 
records  exist  back  of  Nov.  30,  1743.  Nansemond  was  divided  into 
two  parishes,  Lower  or  Suffolk  parish,  and  the  Upper  parish  in  which 
was  the  town  of  Suffolk.  In  the  Lower  parish  were  two  old  brick 
churches,  one  on  the  left  and  the  other  on  the  right  bank  of  the 
Nansemond  river,  each  about  ten  miles  from  Suffolk.  On  a  hill  one 
mile  back  of  Suffolk  was  an  old  graveyard,  a  very  beautiful  spot. 
But  it  too  has  disappeared,  having  long  since  been  plowed  up.  On 
the  3d  of  November,  1647,  Peter  bought  one  hundred  acres  of  land 
in  County  Nansemond  [Va.  Land  Office,  Book  2,  p.  130].  This 
makes  a  total  of  450  acres  of  land  which  he  owned  in  that  County, 
the  purchase  of  which  extended  from  1637  to  1647 — a  space  of  ten 
years.  This  land  is  not  mentioned  in  his  will  and  probably  he  gave 
it  to  his  son  Peter,  as  we  find  Peter  disposing  of  land  in  that  Co. 
after  his  father's  death.  Probably  before  the  year  1654  he  had 
removed  his  family  from  Nansemond  to  Lancaster  Co.  and  made  a 
home  on  the  north  bank  of  the  river  Rappahannock,  probably  not  far 
from  the  present  county  seat  of  Lancaster.     That  he  owned  consid-

erable  land  along  the  river  in  Lancaster  as  early  as  165 1  or  2  can 
scarcely  admit  of  a  doubt,  though  the  records  that  are  preserved  at 
Lancaster  do  not  show  it.  Jan'y  16,  1658,  he  was  granted  200  acres 
on  the  Rappahannock  river  [Va.  Land  Office  Book.  4,  p.  340]  and 
this  is  the  last  recorded  purchase  he  ever  made.  He  had  now 
become  a  large  land  owner  and  a  leading  citizen  of  the  Colony,  a 
man  of  intelligence,  of  moral  worth  and  of  influence.  He  represented 
the  County  of  Lancaster  in  the  Assembly  [House  of  Burgesses]  from 
165 1  to  1658.  [See  Hist,  of  Va.  by  R.  R.  Howson,  p.  309-310.] 
"In  1657-58,  he  represented  the  County  of  Lancaster  in  the  House 
of  Burgesses  at  James  City." — See  Hen.  Stat.,  Vol.  1,  p.  431. 
Failing  health  at  this  time  no  doubt  was  the  cause  of  his  resigning  his 
official  duties  in  that  capacity.  In  his  will,  dated  March,  1659,  he 
says  he  is  "  weak  of  body  but  of  perfect  memory."  He  was  a  member 
of  the  Established  Church,  and  the  absence  of  church  records  will 
not  prevent  the  fact  being  recorded  here — that  he  was  a  leading- 
member,  prominent  in  all  good  works,  one  of  the  founders  of  the 
church  in  Virginia.  "  There  were  two  parishes  in  Lancaster  on  the 
north  side  of  the  river,  St.  Marys  and  Christ  Church.  The  White 
Chapel  Church  was  in  the  parish  of  St.  Marys.  These  two  parishes 
were  afterward  united  into  that  of  Christ  Church,  Lancaster.  The 
first  vestry  book  known  was  dated  1654.  The  church  was  completed 
in  1670  under  the  direction  of  Mr.  John  Carter,  the  great  ancestor  of 
many  bearing  that  name  in  Va.  The  present  churchy  built  upon  the 
same  spot  by  Mr.  Robert  Carter  [known  as  King  Carter]  son  of  John 
and  was  completed  in  1732.  In  1654  Rev.  Samuel  Cole  was  the 
minister  of  this  church,  [the  same  who  was  minister  in  Middlesex  in 
1664]  he  was  at  that  time  the  minister  for  the  whole  Co.  both  sides 
of  the  river.  After  him  the  Rev.  Andrew  Jackson  was  minister,  and 
he  was  succeeded  by  Rev.  John  Bell,  who  was  minister  from  17 13  to 
1743.  Rev.  David  Currie  succeeded  him  until  his  death  in  1791, 
nearly  fifty  years.  From  1796  to  1805  Rev.  Daniel  McNaughton 
was  minister  and  James  Ball,  William  Montague,  and  Martin  Shear- 
man were  lay  delegates.  In  1732  a  new  church  was  built  upon  the 
site  of  the  old  one  and  was  standing  in  1857  in  good  state  of  preser- 
vation, being  very  solidly  built,  the  walls  three  feet  thick.  The  first 
White  Chapel  church  was  torn  down,  the  present  one  was  built  in 
1740.  In  1724,  Mr.  Bell,  who  had  been  their  minister  for  twelve 
years,  informs  the  Bishop  of  London  that  there  were  three  hundred

families  in  the  parish.  The  name  of  John  Washington  of  Westmore- 
land appears  on  the  records  of  this  church.  The  graveyard  is  full  of 
the  family  of  Balls."  [Bishop  Meades  old  churches  of  Va.]  Having 
digressed  for  the  purpose  of  recording  this  brief  history  of  the  old 
church  which  Peter  Montague  attended,  and  probably  was  one  of  the 
founders,  his  own  history  will  be  continued. 

The  occupation  of  Peter  was  that  of  a  planter.  His  crops  con- 
sisting of  wheat,  barley  and  tobacco,  which  was  exported  to  England. 
There  was  much  in  this  spot,  upon  this  broad  and  grandly  flowing 
river,  to  remind  Peter  of  his  old  home  upon  the  Thames  in  England, 
and  here  his  last  days  were  passed,  among  the  solitudes  of  a  new  world. 
Here  he  peacefully  passed  away,  surrounded  by  his  wife,  his  children 
and  neighbors,  and  with  full  and  firm  trust  in  his  Redeemer  and 
Saviour.  He  died  the  last  of  April  or  the  first  of  May,  1659,  and 
was  buried  on  the  north  bank  of  the  Rappahannock,  near  his  home. 
His  tombstone  was  standing  as  late  as  1849,  but  much  defaced  by 
the  hand  of  time. 

He  married,  probably  in  the  spring  of  1633,  Cicely  *  *.  Effort 

has  been  made  to  discover  the  maiden  name  of  his  wife  and  some- 
thing of  the  family  to  which  she  belonged.*  They  were  no  doubt 
married  some  where  in  the  vicinity  of  James  City,  for  there  it  was 
that  the  first  years  of  Peter's  life  in  the  new  world  were  passed. 
Tradition  says  she  was  a  daughter  of  Samuel  Mathews,  who  was 
Governor  of  the  Colony  in  1656.  It  is  true  that  Peter  lived  upon  the 
plantation  of  Capt.  Mathews  during  these  early  years,  and  that  Capt. 
Mathews  and  Peter  Montague  were  life-long  associates  and  friends. 
No  record  of  such  marriage  however  has  been  found.  All  of  the 
records  of  James  City  Co.  were  destroyed  during  the  late  war  and  no 
record  there  dates  back  of  1865.  His  wife  outlived  him  and  was  the 
executor  of  his  estate  jointly  with  her  eldest  son  Peter.  No  record 
of  her  death  has  been  found. 

The  records  of  Lancaster  have  an  inventory  of  the  estate  of 

*  The  Muster  Roll  of  1624  contains  the  names  of  but  two  persons  of  the  name  of  Cicily. 
One  was  Cicily  Greene  at  the  plantation  of  Capt.  Ralph  Hamor  at  James  City.  The  other 
was  Mrs.  Cicily  Jordan,  of  Jordans  Jorney  Charles  City.  She  was  a  young  widow,  age  24 
years,  who  came  in  the  ship  "Swan,"  in  August,  1610,  when  she  was  but  ten  years  of  age. 
She  owned  the  Plant,  at  Jordans  Jorney,  and  William  Ferrar  was  the  manager.  Her  hus- 
band had  recently  died  (1624).  She  had  two  children,  Mary  aged  three  years,  and  Margaret 
aged  one  year,  both  born  in  Va.  Robert  Manuell  and  John  Hely,  who  came  with  Peter 
Montague  in  1621,  were  both  located  on  Mrs.  Jordan's  plant.  Their  names  appear  in  both 
lists,  that  of  Feb'y,  1623,  and  Jan'y,  1624.

Hannah  Montague,  taken  Nov.  28.  1659.  returned  to  court,  Nov.  30, 
1659.  It  has  been  found  impossible  to  state  who  she  was.  Perhaps 
she  was  the  first  wife  of  Peter  Montague  the  emigrant  and  the  mother 
of  his  children,  the  said  Cicely  being  his  second  wife.  His  will  was 
proved  in  May,  1659.  and  this  inventor}-  coming  so  soon  afterward 
would  seem  to  indicate  that  it  related  to  a  part  of  his  estate.  Possibly 
said  Hannah  was  a  deceased  wife  of  either  one  of  the  sons  of  Peter, 
but  as  it  was  the  year  Peter  died  it  does  not  seem  probable,  if  it  was 
so  she  certainly  died  childless,  as  the  will  of  Peter  proves. 

A  copy  of  the  will  of  Peter  Montague,  dated  27th  March,  1659, 
and  proved  25th  May,  the  same  year,  is  given  below : 

In  the  name  of  God  amen,  I  Peter  Montague  being  weak  in  body  and 
perfect  memory  do  make  this  my  last  will  and  testament,  this  the  27th  of 
March  1659  in  name  and  form  following. 

First  I  bequeath  my  soul  into  the  hands  of  my  redeemer  Jesus  Christ,  and 
my  body  to  be  buried. 

Item,  my  debts  being  first  paid  I  give  to  my  loving  wife  Cicely  one  third 
part  of  all  my  real  and  personal  estate  according  to  law. 

Item,  I  give  to  my  two  sons  Peter  and  Will.  Mountague  all  my  land  lying 
on  Rappahannock  river  to  them  and  their  heirs  forever,  and  the  land  being 
divided  it  is  my  will,  that  the  elder  is  to  have  the  first  choice,  and  in  case  of 
want  of  heirs  of  either,  the  survivor  to  enjoy  all  the  land,  and  in  case  both  of 
them  shall  depart  this  life  without  heirs,  lawfully  begotten,  then  my  will  is 
that  the  said  land  be  sold  by  the  commissioners  of  this  count}*  after  public 
notice  given  either  at  an  outcry,  or  by  an  inch  of  candle*  and  the  produce 
thereof  to  be  equally  divided  between  my  three  daughters,  Ellen,  Margaret, 
and  Elizabeth,  and  the  child  of  Ann  late  wife  of  John  Jadwin,  and  in  case  of 
any  of  these  shall  die  without  issue,  then  the  produce  of  the  said  land  to  be 
divided  between  the  survivors. 

Item.  I  give  the  other  two  thirds  of  my  personal  estate  to  my  four  children 
Peter,  Will.  Margaret,  and  Elizabeth  to  be  equally  divided  among  them. 

Item,  I  give  to  my  daughter  Ellen,  the  wife  of  Will  Thompson,  one 
thousand  pounds  of  tobacco,  and  cask  to  be  deducted,  of  a  bill  of  thirteen 
hundred  pounds  of  tobacco  now  due  to  me  by  the  said  Will  Thompson. 
Lastly  I  ordain  my  loving  -wife  Cicely  and  my  son  Peter  jointly  Executrix  and 
Executor  of  this  my  last  will  and  testament.  In  witness  of  the  previous  I 
have  hereunto  set  my  hand  and  seal  the  day  and  year  above  written  1659 
interlined  before  the  signing  and  sealing  hereof.

SON  OF  PETER   NO.  i. 


SECOND  GENERATION  AND  CHILDREN. 
4- 

Peter  Montague,  son  of  Peter  [1],  b.  in  Nansemond  Co.,  Va. 

He  was  at  least  21  years  of  age  in  1659,  because  at  that  date  he 
was  an  executor  of  his  father's  will.  The  patent  for  1000  acres  of 
land  in  Middlesex,  issued  to  Peter,  the  son  of  this  Peter,  and  grand- 
son of  Peter  1,  states  that  said  land  was  granted  to  the  father  of  said 
Peter  Dec,  1652,  by  patent  from  George  Ludlow,  Esq.  Such  patent 
would  not  have  been  granted  to  a  minor,  which  appears  to  establish 
that  Peter  was  at  least  21  in  1652 — and  28  years  old  at  the  death  of 
his  father,  in  1659.  This  would  place  his  birth  in  163 1  or  2.  The 
wording  of  his  father's  will  seems  to  render  it  certain  that  he  was  not 
married  and  had  no  children  in  1659,  when  his  father  died.  He  was 
at  that  time  between  21  and  28  years  of  age. 

On  the  2d  of  June,  1662,  Peter  purchased  from  James  Bolter  and 
wife  of  Nansemond  Co.,  200  acres  of  land.  [L.  records.]  Nov.,  1665 
Peter  purchased  from  Minor  Doods  and  his  wife  Mary  Doods,  200 
acres  of  land,  on  east  side  of  Deep  Creek,  and  in  the  same  year  he 
leased  said  land  for  fifty-four  years  to  said  Minor  Doods  [L.  records.] 
In  1668  there  is  a  deed  from  Peter  Montague  to  Thomas  Banks. 
Feb'y  15,  1668,  there  is  an  assignment,  made  by  Peter  Montague,  to 
Thomas  Banks  and  John  Hawkins,  of  all  his  lands  in  Nansemond  Co. 
[L.  records.]  In  Essex  Co.  records  there  is  a  deed  Feb'y  10,  1703, 
for  100  acres  of  land  sold  by  William  Montague,  Jr.,  son  of  William 
Montague,  Sr.,  of  Middlesex,  to  William  Montague,  son  of  Pete?-  Mon- 
tague late  of  Middlesex  Co.,  for  £30  sterling.

DESCENDANTS   OF   PETER  MONTAGUE. 


Among  the  records  of  Christ  Church,  Middlesex,  is  the  following : 
"  John  Montague  the  son  of  Peter  and  Mary  Montague  was  baptized 
21st  May,  1682."  "Thomas  Paine  and  Mary  Montague  were  mar- 
ried 24th  Oct.,  1682."  M.  Co.  records  have  a  deed,  "Dec.  5,  1682, 
from  Peter  Montague  to  his  god-daughter  Elizabeth  Long  for  one 
heifer  calf." 

Peter  [1]  by  his  will,  in  1659,  gave  all  his  land  lying  along  the 
Rappahannock  river  to  his  two  sons,  Peter  and  William.  The  elder 
son,  Peter,  to  have  the  first  choice.  When  that  will  was  made,  Lan- 
caster included  all  that  is  now  Lancaster,  Middlesex,  Essex  and 
Richmond  Co.s  In  1665  Middlesex  was  cut  off  from  Lancaster. 
The  land  which  was  willed  to  the  two  sons,  or  some  of  it,  lay  in  what 
is  now  Middlesex  Co.  and  included  Montague  Island,  which  is  situ- 
ated near  what  is  now  known  as  Bay  Port  wharf,  in  Middlesex.  This 
island  was  known  as  Montague  Island  as  early  as  1686  and  probably 
bore  that  name  in  1660.  Christ  church  records  have  the  date  of  the 
birth  Sept.  9,  1686,  of  Henry,  son  of  Henry  and  Ann  Davis  of  Mon- 
tague Island,  and  of  his  baptism  Sept.  19,  1686,  also  of  the  burial,  in 
January,  1686,  of  Mrs.  Mary  Minor,  a  widow,  of  Montague  Island. 
It  was  probably  her  son,  Garrett  Minor,  who  was  presented  by  the 
Grand  Jury  of  Middlesex,  with  William  Montague,  in  1704,  for 
bringing  oysters  ashore  on  the  Sabbath  day.  The  tradition  that 
Peter  and  William  Montague  lived  upon  this  island  is  probably  cor- 
rect. One,  or  both  of  them,  certainly  owned  it,  and  it  remained  in 
possession  of  the  Montagues  for  many  generations.  Latane  Mon- 
tague [322]  brother  of  Lewis  B.,  owned  it,  it  came  to  him  through  his 
wife  Catherine  Montague,  dau.  of  Thomas.  The  island  is  now 
divided  into  three  farms,  and  upon  that  part  formerly  owned  by  Mr. 
Robert  Daniel,  was  a  large  tree  upon  which  was  cut  in  large  letters, 
the  name  of  William  Montague,  with  the  date,  which  was  previous  to 
1760.  The  early  church  and  parishes  of  Middlesex  were  called 
Lancaster,  and  Piankatank.  In  1666  they  became  one,  under  the 
name  of  Christ  church,  and  in  that  year  it  was  agreed  by  the  V estry 
to  build  a  mother  church  by  the  name  of  Christ  church,  which  was 
built  at  a  place  about  midway  between  Brandon  and  Rosegill,  the 
seats  of  the  Wormleys  and  the  Grimeses,  not  far  from  the  Rappahan- 
nock river.  It  was  used  until  17 12,  when  a  new  one  was  built  upon 
the  same  place.  Rev.  Mr.  Cole  was  the  minister  in  1657.  Rev.  Mr. 
Morris  was  minister  previous  to  the  re-union  in  1666,  and  then  the 


BRANCH  OF  HIS   SON  PETER.

Vestry  wrote  to  England  for  a  minister,  and  in  the  meanwhile,  in 
1668,  employed  Rev.  Mr.  Shephard  who  continued  the  minister  until 
his  death  in  1683.  Rev.  Duell  Read  [from  England]  then  became 
minister  for  seven  years  when  he  returned  to  England.  In  1692, 
Rev.  Mathew  Lidford  was  chosen,  but  soon  died.  In  1699,  Rev. 
Robert  Yates  was  minister  until  1704,  when  he  returned  to  England. 
His  son,  Rev.  Bartholomew  Yates  succeeded,  until  his  death  in  1734. 
Then  his  son,  Rev.  Bartholomew  Yates,  was  minister  until  1767.  He 
(or  his  father)  was  Professor  of  Divinity  in  William  and  Mary  College. 
William  Yates  was  President  of  the  college  until  1764.  "The  old 
mother  church  !  the  great  church,  as  she  is  styled  in  her  Journal, 
standing  in  view  of  the  wide  Rappahannock!  More  than  80  years 
ago  it  was  deserted.  Its  roof  decayed  and  fallen  it.  Everything 
within  it  returned  to  its  native  dust.  A  sycamore  tree  sprung  up 
within  its  walls.  In  1840  it  was  a  huge,  overspreading  tree,  and  was 
removed  piecemeal  from  the  house.  The  rich  mould  of  fifty  years' 
accumulation  to  the  depth  of  two  feet  was  dug  up  before  the  Chancel 
floor  and  the  stone  aisles  could  be  reached.  The  walls  were  unin- 
jured and  may  still  remain  while  generations  of  frail  modern  struc- 
tures pass  away.  The  graves  of  our  ancestors  are  all  around  it.  In 
scattered  fragments  some  of  the  tombstones  lie."  [Bishop  Meade.] 

Peter  Montague  was  a  member  of  this  church,  and  from  his  posi- 
tion in  the  Co. — a  prominent  member,  even  as  his  father  had  been  in 
Lancaster.  It  is  not  improbable  that  his  wife  Elizabeth  Morris  was 
the  daughter  of  the  minister,  Rev.  Mr.  Morris.  Certainly  so  if  the 
minister's  name  was  Thomas.  The  almost  total  destruction  of  church 
records  prevents  a  more  extended  record  of  him.  The  marriage  of 
his  dau.  Mary  to  Thomas  Paine  in  1682,  indicates  that  he  married 
first,  as  early  as  1663,  [which  is  probably  not  far  from  the  correct 

date]  Mary,  dau.  of  *  *.    She  probably  died  soon  after  the  birth 

of  her  son  John  in  1682,  and  he  soon  after  married  (2)  Elizabeth 
Morris,  dau.  of  Thomas  Morris.*     This  marriage  is  evidenced  by  a 

*  Morris.  Is  probably  anciently  derived  from  the  baptismal  name  of  Maurice,  or  from  the 
French  Du  Marais,  meaning  "of  the  Marsh.*'  Richard  Morris,  age  19,  sailed  from  London 
for  Va.,  on  ship  "Speedwell,"  May  28,  1635.  Davie  Morris,  age  32,  came  on  the  "America," 
June  23,  1635.  Joseph  Morris,  age  26,  came  on  the  "  David,"  Sept.  2, 1635.  Richard  Morrice, 
age  17,  came  on  the  "Abraham,"  Oct.  24,  1635.  The  names  of  John  Morris  and  Samuel 
Morris  are  on  the  list  of  the  living  in  Va.  in  1623,  and  Richard  Morris  among  the  dead.  On 
the  Muster  Roll  of  1624  occur  the  names  of  Samuel  Morris,  age  20,  came  on  the  "Abigail" 
and  living  at  Mulbury  Island,  and  John  Morris,  age  24,  came  in  the  "  Bona  Nova  "  in  1619, 
and  Mary  Morris,  age  22,  came  in  the  "  George,"  1623,  both  the  two  last  were  living  in 
Elizabeth  City.

William  Montague  [probably  his  brother  William]  and  Richard  Kemp 
who  gave  bond  dated  March  1,  1702. 

He  died  Jan'y  or  Feb'y,  1702,  aged  from  65  to  70  years.  He  left 
no  will.  The  inventory  of  his  estate  was  filed,  or  recorded,  May  3,

has  been  found,  to  know  that  he  resided  in  Middlesex,  married,  and 
enjoyed  average  prosperity.  Soon  after  his  father's  death  in  1702  it 
is  found  that  1000  acres  of  land  was  granted  to  him  in  Middlesex, 
Oct.  24.  1702  [Land  office,  Richmond],  which  land  up  to  that  time 
stood  in  the  name  of  his  father,  and  the  transfer  was  thus  made, 
probably  because  his  father  left  no  will.  This  land  extended  along 
the  river  from  a  marked  white  oak  on  the  southward  side  of  the 
mouth  of  Sandy  Point  Creek,  500  rods  on  the  main  river  side  to  a 
marked  white  oak  on  the  southward  side  of  Pius  [or  Pins  ?]  Creek, 
and  extended  west  by  south  320  rods.  He  probably  married  as  early 
as  1693,  as  he  had  a  son  who  was  married  in  17 17.  March  1.  1702, 
M.  records  have  a  deed  of  gift,  from  William  Montague,  Jr.,  [by 
request  of  his  father,  William  Sr.],  to  Thomas  Montague,  the  eldest 
son  of  this  Peter,  for  one  horse  colt.  This  deed  could  not  have 
referred  to  any  other  Thomas  at  that  date.  The  deed  specifies 
"  Thomas,  eldest  son  of  Peter."  The  same  records  have  a  deed  from 
Thomas  Morris  [already  alluded  to.  see  Peter  4]  by  which  the  chil- 
dren of  a  certain  servant  were  to  go  to  Peter's  grandson  Peter,  the 
date  being  1702.  It  provides  that  if  said  grandson  Peter  died  before 
he  was  21.  they  were  to  go  to  his  brother  Thomas.  Xo  daughters, 
or  other  children  are  mentioned.    Xo  will  has  been  found.

DESCENDANTS  OF  PETER  MONTAGUE. 


13. 

Peter  Montague,*  son  of  Peter  [9],  b.  about  1696,  in  Middlesex 
Co.,  Va. 

He  grew  to  manhood  in  this  Co.  and  m.  before  1728,  Elizabeth, 

dau  of   .      Soon  after  the  death  of  their  first  born  son  in  1730 

they  removed  from  Middlesex  to  Spotts  Co.  At  that  time  Spotts  Co. 
included  what  is  now  known  as  Orange.  The  partition  of  the 
Co.s  was  made  in  1734,  the  line  between  the  two  Co.s  was  very 
near  where  Peter  had  settled,  but  it  brought  him  over  the  line  into 
Orange  Co.  He  thus  became  a  first  settler  of  that  Co.  The  nearest 
town  at  that  time  was  Fredericksburg.  The  first  mention  of  his 
name  on  Spotts  Co.  was  a  deed  for  land,  228  acres  purchased  from 
P.  Curtis,  dated  June  3,  1735  [Book  C,  p.  123].  June  2,  1741,  Peter 
and  wife  Elizabeth  sold  242  acres  to  John  Blake  [Book  C,  p.  462]. 
Nov.  4,  1745,  they  sold  100  acres  to  John  Long  [Book  D,  p.  252]. 
In  Orange  records  there  is  a  deed  dated  June  10,  1745,  recorded 
July  25,  1745,  from  Abraham  Mayfield  to  Peter  Mountague  [Book 
10,  171]  also  a  deed  from  Malachi  Chiles  to  Peter  Mountague,  also 
dated  June  10,  1745,  recorded  July  25,  1745,  for  49  acres  lying  in 

one  part  of  which  I  give  to  my  son  Philip  Montague,  and  another  part  to  my  daughter 
Catherine,  and  the  other  part  I  give  to  be  equally  divided  between  my  two  grandsons  Thomas 
and  William  Montague  to  them  and  their  heirs  forever.  Lastly  I  do  appoint  my  son  Philip 
and  my  daughter  Catherine  Montague,  executors  of  this  my  last  will  and  testament.  In  wit- 
ness whereof  I  have  hereunto  set  my  hand  and  affixed  my  seal  this  day  of 
[the  day  and  year  left  blank] .  her

Sarah  Segar. 

At  a  court  held  for  Middlesex  Co.  at  the  Court  House  in  Urbanna  on  Tuesday  the  first 
day  of  December,  1767,  this  last  will  of  Penelope  Montague  deceased  was  presented  in  court 
by  Philip  Montague  one  of  the  executors  therein  named.  Whereupon  the  same  was  proved 
by  the  oaths  of  John  Lee  and  Sarah  Segar,  two  of  the  witnesses  thereto  and  ordered  to  be 
recorded.  And  on  motion  of  the  said  executor  who  made  oath  according  to  law,  certificate  is 
granted  them  for  obtaining  letters  of  Probat  thereof  in  due  form,  giving  security,  on  which 
he,  with  William  Roane  his  surity  entered  into  and  acknowledged  their  bond  in  penalty  of 
one  hundred  pounds  conditioned  required  by  law.

the  Co.  line  of  Spotts.  By  a  deed  of  gift  dated  April  25,  1750, 
recorded  same  day  [Book  n,  188]  Peter  Mountague  gives  to  his 
children,  viz.  :  Peter,  William,  John  Merry,  Mary  Ann,  and  Caty, 
250  acres  to  each  of  the  two  first-named  sons,  and  a  servant  and  cow 
and  calf  to  each  of  the  other  children.  No  record  of  his  death  [or 
the  death  of  his  wife]  has  been  found,  nor  any  will  on  record.  The 
church  records  have  all  been  destroyed.  The  first  church  built  in 
Orange  Co.  was  as  early  as  1723,  and  was  used  in  1740.  It  stood 
about  ten  miles  northwest  of  Orange  C.  H.,  on  a  portion  of  land 
owned  in  1857,  by  Mr.  Robert  Brooking.  A  short  distance  from 
where  this  church  stood  was  the  residence  of  Benj.  Cave,  Sr.,  a  first 
settler,  and  whose  name  has  been  perpetuated  in  one  branch  of  the 
Montagues,  by  intermarriage  with  his  descendants.  The  middle  or 
brick  church  was  situated  about  three  miles  southeast  of  Orange  C. 
H.  on  the  old  road  to  Fredericksburg,  on  land  originally  owned  by 
James  Taylor,  Sr.,  an  old  settler,  and  ancestor  of  Gen.  Zach.  Taylor. 
It  was  built  about  1750  and  has  entirely  disappeared,  torn  down, 
carried  off,  brick  by  brick.  The  altar  pieces  rent  into  fragments  and 
attached  as  ornaments  to  household  furniture.  The  Pine  Stake 
church,  built  about  1750,  near  Mountain  Run,  fifteen  miles  northeast 
of  Orange  C.  H.,  on  land  originally  owned  by  Francis  Taliaferro,  Sr.- 
The  vestry  books  all  lost.

were  two  churches  in  the  parish,  Upper  and  Lower  Piscatoway.  No 
records  of  the  parish  have  been  found.*  Nov.  21,  1738,  Abraham 
Montague  was  appointed  by  the  court,  constable  for  Essex  Co.  April 
16,  1739,  he  was  appointed  court  surveyor  of  roads.  He  was  an 
active  member  of  the  church  of  which  his  wife's  father  was  the  pastor 
and  he  was  a  vestryman  of  that  church.  He  d.  in  June  or  July,  1740, 
in  Essex.  His  will  was  dated  May  3,  1740,  and  was  proved  Sept. 
16,  1740,  and  mentions  his  wife  Charlotte,  his  brother  William  Mon- 
tague, and  his  children  in  the  order  as  given  below.  His  wife,  Mrs. 
Charlotte  Montague,  d.  in  1746  or  1747.  She  left  a  will,  dated  Jan'y 
25,  1746,  proved  July  22,  1747,  in  which  she  mentions  the  names  of 
her  children  as  given  below.  The  Co.  records  of  Middlesex  have  "a 
bond  dated  June  22,  1754,  from  Abraham  Montague,  Latane  Mon- 
tague and  Frances  Montague  to  Lewis  Montague  eldest  son  and  heir 
at  law  of  his  mother  Charlotte  Montague,  for  the  delivery  of  certain 
negroes  devised  by  Rev.  Lewis  Latane  to  his  daughter,  Mrs.  Char- 
lotte Montague  to  descend  to  the  said  Lewis."  Also  Feb.  19,  1755, 
"  an  acknowledgement  to  Lewis  Montague  of  having  received  certain 
negroes  devised  by  Rev.  Lewis  Latane  to  his  daughter  Mrs.  Charlotte 
Montague,  signed  by  Henry  Vass,  William  Montague,  Abraham  and 
Latane  Montague. 

*  "  Rev.  Lewis  Latane  was  the  first  minister  of  this  parish  of  whom  there  is  any  record- 
He  was  a  Huguenot,  and  fled  from  France  to  England,  after  the  revocation  of  the  Edict  of 
Nantes,  Oct.,  1685,  where  he  remained  until  the  year  1700.  He  arrived  in  Va.  March  5,  1701, 
and  was  installed  as  pastor  of  the  Essex  church  April  5,  1701.  He  was  a  member  of  the  con- 
vention of  the  clergy  of  Va.,  held  in  the  College  of  William  and  Mary  at  Williamsburg, 
April  8,  1719.  After  he  had  ministered  to  the  parish  for  16  years,  an  attempt  was  made  on 
the  part  of  the  Vestry  to  displace  him,  and  for  no  reason,  except  that  he  could  not  speak 
English  plainly.  Mr.  Latane  seems  to  have  been  a  quiet  man,  moving  on  in  the  even  tenor 
of  his  way,  but  feeling  keenly  the  injustice  done  him  by  the  Vestry.  He  felt  aggrieved  that 
after  preaching  for  them  so  many  years,  the  objection  should  be  made  at  so  late  a  day.  He 
was  on  one  occasion  riding  with  one  of  his  parishioners,  when  the  subject  of  his  removal  was 
talked  over  by  them.  The  other  expressed  his  sorrow  but  thought  it  better,  on  the  ground 
that  Mr.  Latane's  sermons  were  rendered  unintelligible  by  his  foreign  brogue.  Before  separ- 
ating, they  came  to  the  minister's  gate.  "Go  by,"  he  said,  "and  get  something  to  drink," 
which  was  readily  agreed  to.  This  he  said  to  prove  him.  "  Now,"  said  the  minister,  "  you 
can  readily  understand  me  when  I  tempt  you  to  do  wrong,  but  you  cannot  understand  me 
when  I  counsel  you  to  do  right."  He  was  three  times  married.  Of  his  first  two  wives  no 
records  exist.  His  third  was  Mary  Dean,  a  relative  and  protegee  of  William  Beverley  of 
Blandfield,  Essex.  He  died  in  1732,  leaving  one  son  John,  and  five  daughters.  In  his  will 
three  daughters  are  mentioned  as  "  C,"  "  P,"  and  "  S."  Perhaps  there  is  no  instance  to  be 
found  in  Va.  where  a  whole  family  have  been  more  remarkable  for  truth  and  fidelity  in  all 
their  dealings  and  character.  John,  his  only  surviving  son,  married  a  Miss  Mary  Allen ; 
William,  his  only  surviving  son  married  Miss  Ann  Waring,  leaving  a  large  number  of  sons 
and  daughters.  His  daughter  Lucy,  third  in  descent  from  Rev.  Mr.  Latane,  married  Mr. 
Payne  Waring  of  Essex.  His  daughter  Mary  married  Mr.  John  Temple,  one  of  whose  sons 
was  the  minister  of  South  Farnham,  Essex,  in  1857-"— [Bishop  Meade.]     Of  the  church

When  he  was  about  21  years  of  age  he  removed  to  Orange  Co.,

Thomas  Montague,  son  of  Thomas,  Jr.,  [12],  b.  Feb;y  20,  17 19, 
in  Middlesex  Co.,  Va.,  bapt.  in  Christ  church,  Feb'y  28,  17 19. 

At  the  age  of  21  he  went  to  Spotts*  Co.,  Va.,  near  where  others  of 
his  relatives  had  preceded  him.  On  July  26,  1740,  he  purchased 
182  acres  of  land  in  that  Co.  from  Rice  Curtis  [Book  C,  p.  394].  His 
age  at  this  time  was  21  years,  6  months,  6  clays.  He  had  learned 
the  trade  of  a  carpenter,  and  he  followed  the  occupation  of  a  con- 
tractor and  builder  of  houses.  May  24,  1750,  he  purchased  100 
acres  of  land  in  Orange  Co.,  from  John  Collins  [Book  11,  p.  193]. 
Perhaps  he  lived  on  this  land  for  the  next  two  years.  The  act  estab- 
lishing the  Co.  of  Louisa  passed  the  House  of  Burgesses  in  May, 
1742,  and  went  into  effect  Dec.  1,  following  [Hen.  5,  p.  208].  The 
contract  for  building  the  Louisa  Co.  Court  House  was  awarded  to 
Thomas  Montague,  and  while  he  was  engaged  upon  that  building  he 
met  Mr.  Charles  Daniel,  Sr.,  (who  lived  a  short  distance  north  of  the 
Court  House  site)  whose  clau.  he  afterward  married. 

*  Spottsylvania  was  established  in  1720,  being  taken  from  Essex,  King  William,  and  King 
and  Queen  counties.  It  extended  westward  to  the  river  beyond  the  high  motmtain,  [the 
Shenandoah].  Fredericksburgh  was  founded  by  law  in  1727.  In  1732  it  contained  only  Col. 
Willis,  and  one  merchant,  one  tailor,  one  smith,  an  ordinary-keeper,  and  a  lady  who  acted  as 
a  doctoress  and  coffee  woman. — Bishop  Meade,  Vol.  2,  p.  68.

DESCENDANTS   OF   PETER  MONTAGUE. 


The  records  of  Louisa  Co.  have  the  following,  under  date  of  Feb'y 
25,  1752,  Indenture  between  Thomas  Montague  of  Orange  Co.,  house 
carpenter  and  joiner,  and  Davenport  Kennydy,  in  which  said  Ken- 
nydy  bound  himself  as  an  apprentice  unto  Thomas  Montague  for 
four  years.  This  record  proves  that  Mr.  Montague  resided  in  Orange 
Co.  in  1752,  as  he  is  so  described  in  the  indenture.  He  m.  about 
1753  or  4,  Miss  Jane  Daniel,  dau.  of  Charles  Daniel,  Sr.,*  of  Louisa 
Co.  She  was  b.  Aug.  18,  1733,  bapt.  Sept.  9,  1733.  Records  of 
Louisa  Co.  have  a  deed  dated  Nov.,  1796,  from  Charles  Daniel,  Sr., 
to  his  daughter  Jane  Montague.  Her  father,  Mr.  Daniel,  Sr.,  was 
noted  for  his  honesty  and  piety.  It  is  said  that  the  late  Judge  William 
Daniel  and  Major  John  W.  Daniel  of  Lynchburgh,  Va.,  were  of  the 
same  family.  Mr.  Montague  secured  the  contract  for  building  the 
old  Turkey  Cock  church  in  Cumberland  Co.f  and  while  engaged

t  Through  the  kindness  of  Hon.  William  M.  Flanagan  of  Powhatan,  extracts  have  been 
received  from  the  county  records  of  Cumberland,  as  follows :  Deed  of  Charles  Daniel  of 
Louisa,  of  the  first  part,  Jane  Montague  late  of  Louisa  now  of  Cumberland,  of  the  second 
part,  and  Thomas  Montague  of  the  third  part,  dated  Dec.  27,  179S,  conveys  slave  Sauny. 
Charles  calls  himself  father  of  Jane  Montague,  and  deed  provides  that  Thomas  is  to  care  for 
mother  [Jane]  and  for  grandfather  [Charles].— Deed  Book  8,  p.  259.  Deed  Oct.  4,  1777,  from 
Clement  Montague  of  Spotts  Co.  to  Edward  Walton  conveys  212  acres  for  £\ob.  Witness, 
John  Montague. — [Book  5,  510.]  While  this  witness  may  have  been  John  of  Caroline, 
brother  of  Thomas  and  Clement,  it  more  probably  was  John,  son  of  Thomas  and  nephew  of 
Clement.  Deed  Sept.  12,  1772,  (recorded  Sept.  28)  from  Anne  Hill,  Henry  Tapscott  and 
Winifred  his  wife  and  Isaac  Hill  to  Thomas  Montague  conveys  200  acres  on  both  sides  of 
Carter's  Ferry  road  and  on  both  sides  of  the  church  road— witnessed  by  James  Daniel.  The 
church  here  alluded  to  was  Turkey  Cock  church  built  by  Thomas  Montague.  The  Cross 
roads  was  also  the  site  of  Montague's  tavern  or  "  Ornary,"  the  Montague  homestead.  Here 
Thomas  was  buried,  and  remains  of  the  graveyard  and  old  settlement  still  exist  at  this  date 
(1893).  James  Daniel  who  witnessed  the  deed  was  probably  the  brother  of  Mrs.  Jane  Mon- 
tague who  had  married  Elizabeth  Montague,  dau.  of  Peter  and  niece  of  Thomas  and  Jane 
Montague.  The  records  indicate  that  Thomas  Montague  was  living  in  May,  1778,  and  that 
one  James  Daniel  lived  near  him.  If  this  James  Daniel  was  husband  of  Elizabeth  Montague 
dau.  of  Peter,  he  did  not  long  live  there,  as  the  records  of  his  children  are  in  Louisa  Co.  He 
may  have  been  the  James  Daniel,  brother  of  Charles,  Sr.,  and  uncle  of  Jane  Montague, 
though  records  indicate  that  he  lived  m  Orange.  Thomas  Montague  died  at  some  date 
between  May  and  July,  1778.  Mrs.  Jane  Montague  [his  widow]  was  appointed  administrator 
of  his  estate,  July  27,  1778.  The  appraisement  of  his  estate  was  made  Aug.  22,  1778.— [Will 
Book  2,  246.]  Whole  amount  ^1264,  is,  6d.  Loom,  one  still,  2  juggs,  two  cotton  wheels,  one 
fiddle,  three  deer  skins,  one  currying  knife,  one  Reap  Hook,  negro  men  Jack  and  Peter, 
women  Jane  and  Cate.  Also  in  Will  Book  2,  261,  Jane  Montague's  account  as  administrator

1787,  Suit  of  Smith  and  wife  against  John  Montague  heir  of  Thomas  of  Cumberland,  May, 
1783,  shows  that  John  was  his  oldest  son,  heir  at  law  and  took  his  estate  under  primogeniture 
Lawrence  Smith  and  Catherine  his  wife,  plffs,  recovered  100  acres  land  a  part  of  the 

"  Ornary."    They  state  that  they  came  up  from  County  at  request  of  Thomas,  father  of 

Catherine  to  live  near  him,  under  promise  to  give  her  100  acres  and  that  he  died  suddenly  of 
small  pox,  intestate.    The  county  left  blank  is  Essex,  according  to  a  deposition  filed.

upon  this,  he  purchased  a  tract  of  land  embracing  the  crossing  of  the 
road  leading  from  Cartersville  to  Cumberland  C.  H.,  and  the  road 
running  east  from  Turkey  Cock  church,  and  some  time  after  1752  he 
moved  there  from  Orange  and  built  right  in  the  angle  of  the  two 
roads,  an  old-fashioned  tavern,  which  was  for  many  years  known  as 
Montague"s  old  "Ornary  "  [Ordinary].  He  was  living  at  that  place 
when  the  war  of  the  revolution  occurred  ;  it  is  said  that  he  joined  the 
army  and  served  until  1777  or  8,  when  he  died  in  camp  of  small  pox. 
He  was  buried  at  the  old  "Ornary,"  on  the  old  stage  road  from 
Cumberland  C.  H.  and  about  five  miles  from  Cartersville.  His  wife

When  he  was  three  years  old  his  mother  died,  March  20,  1726. 
He  moved  from  Middlesex  Co.  to  Spotts.  Co.  probably  soon  after  he 
was  21  years  old.  The  first  mention  of  him  in  Spotts.  is  on  a  deed 
of  gift  dated  Sept.  1,  1747,  for  56  acres  of  land,  a  gift  from  his 
father-in-law,  William  Bartlett,  he  having  married  Ann,  daughter  of 
William  Bartlett.*  On  Feb.  2,  1761,  Mr.  Montague  purchased  300 
acres  of  land  from  Lewis  Fielding,  and  on  April  2,  1764  he  purchased 
73  acres  from  Thomas  Colsom,  and  the  same  day  sold  to  Thos.

16,  1781,  he  sold  200  acres  to  Michael  Blunt.  Sept.  18,  1783,  he 
deeded  150  acres  to  his  son  Thomas.  March  7,  1785,  he  made  a 
deed  of  gift  of  a  negro  girl  to  his  grandson  Thomas  C.  June  7,  1785, 
he  made  deed  of  gift  of  negro  boy  named  "Stephen"  to  his  son-in-

October,  1798,  Isaac  Herin  of  Culpeper  Co.  She  was  probably 
many  years  younger  than  her  former  husband,  Clement  Montague,

He  served  in  the  war  of  the  Revolution,  where  he  obtained  the 
title  of  Colonel.  He  resided  in  the  upper  part  of  Middlesex.  A 
tradition  exists  in  one  branch  of  his  descendants,  that  his  father's 
family  lived  in  the  Northern  Neck  of  Va.,  probably  meaning  Lancas- 
ter or  that  part  of  it  which  is  now  Richmond  Co.,  and  that  Colonel 
Philip  moved  from  there  to  Middlesex,  bought  land  near  Montague 
island,  and  built  a  house  which  was  still  standing  in  1891.  However 
this. may  be,  the  family  record  of  his  father,  Thomas,  Jr.,  is  recorded 
in  the  vestry  books  of  Christ  Church,  Middlesex.  The  house  above 
alluded  to  was  afterward  owned  by  Col.  Edmond  H.  Montague  [242] 
after  his  death  it  was  purchased  by  Mr.  Mortimer  Evans  [805].  It 
is  near  the  Rappahannock  and  joins  "  Nesting  "  farm.  It  has  two 
rooms  with  a  hallway  through,  and  with  a  wing  added  on.  Rooms 
above  stairs  were  low  pitched.    It  was  a  fine  farm. 

*  Calendar  Papers,  Vol.  3,  p.  216,  under  date  of  July  13,  1782,  concerning  Middlesex  Co. 
has  the  following  :  "  Philip  Montague,  commanding  officer,  writes  to  the  Governor  that — 
'having  received  two  orders  from  the  Commissioner  of  War  to  hold  in  perfect  readiness  one- 
fourth  of  the  militia  and  one-sixth  properly  accoutred  and  officered  to  march  to  Yorktown, 
he  takes  the  liberty  to  inform  his  Excellency  of  the  peculiar  situation  of  that  county,  and  he 
believes  that  instead  of  drawing  men  from  them,  assistance  should  be  sent  to  defend  the  Co. 
against  the  barges  and  privateers  of  the  enemy,  and  from  the  ravages  of  a  plundering  set 
whose  cruelties  no  man  can  judge  of  who  has  not  felt  them.'  He  begs  that  two  posts  be 
established,  one  at  Pine  Top  at  the  end  of  the  peninsular  toward  the  Chesapeake  bay,  the 
other  at  Urbanna,  which  alone  could  give  security  to  the  people.  He  gives  an  instance  of  a 
privateer  schooner  and  two  barges  that  had  been  for  several  days  in  and  about  the  mouth  of 
the  Rappahannock  and  Pianakitank  rivers  capturing  by  water,  and  landing  and  robbing  the 
inhabitants  of  their  'all'."  He  adds  "that  during  the  past  year  when  the  army  was  in  that 
neighborhood  50  or  60  guns  were  impressed  from  the  inhabitants,  thus  depriving  them  of  the 
means  of  defense,  and  begs  that  the  Co.  may  be  supplied  with  public  arms  in  place  of  those, 
as  soon  as  convenient."  Vol.  8.  p.  91,  has  the  following  "  Proceedings  of  the  District  Com- 
mittee of  Essex  and  Middlesex  Cos.  for  choice  of  officers  for  a  Company  of  Regulars  Feb.  20, 
1776.  The  committee  of  Middlesex  appointed  James  Montague,  Lewis  Montague,  Thomas 
Segar,  and  Philip  Montague,  or  any  three  of  them,  to  act  as  their  members  on  said  District 
Committee.  Pg.  173— May  8,  1776,  warrants  were  issued  for  £4  to  James  Montague,  and 
^9-15-2  to  Philip  Montague  for  services  rendered  in  Middlesex  militia.

that  she  was  unmarried  at  that  date.  On  the  other  hand,  the  persons 
selected  in  1760  to  settle  the  estate  of  John  Montague  were,  Capt. 
Lewis  Montague,  Charles  Lee,  William  Montague  and  William  Segar. 
Capt.  Lewis  was  the  second  cousin  of  this  Catherine,  their  fathers 
being  first  cousins.  John  Montague,  whose  estate  was  being  settled, 
was  also  her  second  cousin.  William  Montague  being  the  brother  of 
John  deceased,  was  also  her  second  cousin.  While  William  Segar 
was  the  husband  of  her  niece,  the  husband  of  her  brother  Philip's 
daughter.  The  name  of  Charles  Lee  on  this  list,  indicates  that  he 
also  may  have  been  a  connection,  but  the  marriage  of  this  Catherine 
has  not  been  discovered.  The  vestry  book  of  Christ  Church  records 
the  marriage,  Nov.  3,  1777,  of  Catherine  Montague  to  Charles 
Howerton,  may  have  referred  to  this  Catherine  but  probably  not.

His  parents  died  when  he  was  but  a  youth,  and  his  elder  brother 
Lewis  was  appointed  his  guardian  by  the  court  Nov.  17,  1747.  He 
became  a  man  of  property  and  of  influence  in  Essex.  His  name

IX.,  a  king  deserving  little  respect  from  any  one,  least  of  all  from  Huguenots.  So  far  as

Nansemond  in  Virginia,  about  1660.  Several  previous  attempts  to  settle  it  had  failed.  It 
had  been  granted  to  different  proprietors  at  different  times  ;  but  in  1663,  it  was  transferred  to 
Lord  Clarendon,  and  some  others  who  procured  a  Constitution  of  Government  to  be  prepared 
for  it  by  the  celebrated  John  Locke.  The  chief  magistrate  was  called  the  Palatine,  and  there 
was  a  hereditary  nobility.  The  Legislature  was  called  a  Parliament.  This  Constitution  was 
so  defective  that  in  1693  it  was  abolished.  In  1729  the  Crown  purchased  the  whole  of  the 
Carolinas  for  ^17,500  sterling;  and  the  king  immediately  divided  it  into  two  provinces,  North

He  appears  to  have  resided  in  Essex,  certainly  he  owned  estate  in 
that  Co.  The  records  of  Essex  have  the  appraisement  of  his  estate 
recorded  March  21,  1785.  Peter  Montague  was  the  administrator, 
no  doubt  his  brother,  but  if  so  Peter  died  before  the  estate  was 
settled,  for  the  account  of  settlement  made  by  Peter  was  not  con- 
firmed and  recorded  until  Oct.  15,  1792,  while  the  appraisement  of 
the  estate  of  Peter  Montague  was  recorded  July  20,  1789,  some  two 
and  one-half  years  before  the  settlement  of  Samuel's  estate.  Oct.  15, 
1792,  the  court  of  Essex  appointed  a  guardian  for  Samuel  Montague, 
orphan  of  Samuel  Montague  deceased.  And  the  same  date,  the 
sheriff  was  appointed  to  settle  the  estates  of  Samuel  Montague 
deceased  and  of  Lucy  Montague  deceased,  widow  of  said  Samuel 
Montague.     May  16,  1797,  Samuel  Montague- — an  infant,  by  his 

guardian  ,  appears  as  plaintiff  in  a  Chancery  suit.    In  the  same 

suit  appears  the  name  of  John  Montague,  an  infant,  by  his  guardian 
John  Montague,  and  James  Montague,  an  infant,  by  his  guardian 
Wm.  Montague.  "Oct.  15,  1798,  William  Montague,  son  of  Samuel,

The  record  of  her  birth  in  the  vestry  book  of  Christ  Church  was  so 
worn  with  age  that  it  was  impossible  to  say  if  the  date  was  1750  or 
52,  but  it  was  one  or  the  other.  She  was  the  youngest  daughter  and 
child.  Christ  Church  records  have  the  marriage,  March  23,  1769, 
of  Elizabeth  Montague  to  Howard  Williams.  The  will  of  Howard 
Williams  has  been  searched  for  but  not  found  and  his  wife  has  not

London,  1722,  has  the  following:  "Early  in  1703  Col.  Robert  Daniel  arrived  at  Port  Royal, 
Carolina,  and  brought  an  account  that  Col.  Moor,  governor  of  that  plantation  marched  from 
Charles  Town  in  Carolina  with  500  men  in  order  to  attack  a  colony  of  Spaniards  about  300 
miles  distant,  called  St.  Augustine,  near  the  gulf  of  Florida.  That  he  soon  possessed  him- 
self of  the  town,  but  the  inhabitants  had  retired  into  a  strong  castle  surrounded  with  a  very 
deep  and  broad  moat.  Col.  Moor  had  sent  Col.  Daniel  to  Port  Royal  to  borrow  a  mortar 
and  some  shells  to  bombard  it."  The  Hist,  of  the  Grassy  Creek  Baptist  Church  of  Xorth

Va.,  to  Abbeville  Co.,  S.  C,  about  1808. *  All  of  his  children  accom- 
panied him  except  his  two  sons  William  L,  and  Henry  B.  He  settled 
near  old  fort  Ninety-six.  Here  he  resided  for  more  than  twenty 
years,  and  lived  to  be  very  aged.  He  was  a  consistent,  zealous  and 
pious  member  of  the  Episcopal  church.  A  grand  daughter  who  lived 
with  him  in  his  old  age  thus  relates  her  remembrance  of  him  when 
she  was  a  child,  "when  my  father  [his  son  Philip]  died  in  1828,  and 
the  body  was  borne  to  the  graveyard,  the  grave  was  not  finished,  and 
the  bearers  set  the  coffin  down.  Grandfather  used  a  long  cane,  the 
top  finished  with  a  marble  head,  just  long  enough  to  rest  his  chin  on. 
He  walked  around  with  tears  streaming  down  his  aged  cheeks,  raised 
his  trembling  hands,  and  with  a  trembling  voice  thus  apostrophized 
the  body  of  his  son — "There  lies  virtue  and  honesty  personified." 
He  died  Sept.  20,  1831,  aged  about  80,  at  the  residence  of  his  daugh- 
ter Mrs.  Charlotte  (Moseley)  McGhee.  His  wife  died  in  Abbeville

*  Vaughan.  This  ancient  family  is  from  Wales  and  devives  its  descent  from  Colwyn-ap- 
Tagne,  one  of  the  fifteen  tribes  of  Gwynedd.  He  lived  in  the  time  of  Prince  Anarawd,  about 
the  year  of  our  Lord  875  ;  was  Lord  of  Ardudwy,  now  a  part  of  Merionethshire,  and  of 
Evioneth,  one  of  the  hundreds  of  Caernarvon,  and  also  a  Part  of  Glyn  ;  his  posterity  at  this 
day  possess  most  of  the  lands  in  those  countries.  His  grandsons  Asser,  Merion  and  Gwgan, 
the  sons  of  Merwydd-ap-Colwyn  were  grown  up  to  man's  estate  in  the  beginning  of  the  reign 
of  Prince  Griffith-ap-Conan,  and  lived  in  Glyn  about  the  year  1080,  when  Griffith  first  laid 
claim  to  the  Principality  of  Wales.  Their  ancient  seat  Caer-Colwyn  is  now  called  Harleigh 
Castle.  The  family  have  been  Earls  of  Lisburne  in  Ireland.  The  ancient  family  arms  were 
"  Sable,  a  chevron  between  three  fleurs-de-lis,  argent."  The  name  Vaughan  means  "  little  in 
stature."  A  personal  name  of  great  antiquity.  The  Vaughans  of  Burlton  Hall  Co.,  Salop, 
were  from  the  renowned  Tudor-Trevor  the  common  patriarch  of  so  many  noble  and  gentile 
families  in  the  principality.  The  arms  of  Vaughan  of  Wales,  Hertfordshire  and  Yorkshire 
were  "Sa,  a  chev.  between  three  boys'  heads,  couped  at  the  shoulders  erm.,  crined  or, 
enwrapted  about  the  necks  with  as  many  snakes,  proper."  Crest,  "a  boy's  head  as  in  the 
arms."  More  than  twenty  coats  have  been  granted  to  the  name  mostly  in  Wales.  Rowland 
Vaughan,  age  19,  came  to  Va.  on  the  "Alice,"  July,  1635  ;  Joseph  Vaughan,  age  17,  on  the 
"Elizabeth,"  Aug.,  1635;  Davie  Vaughan,  age  19,  on  the  "Globe,"  Aug.,  1635  ;  John  Vaughan 
age  23,  was  living  at  Elizabeth  City  in  1624,  came  on  the  "  Bona-Nova,"  1619.

then  lived.*'  That  land  reverted  or  descended  to  his  cousin  Thomas, 
son  of  his  father's  bro.  Col.  Philip.  There  is  an  Inventory  of  the

Fountain  Run,  Essex  Co.,  Va.,  July  21,  1830. 
Very  Dear  Brother  and  I  expect  Cousin: 

I  received  the  minutes  of  your  Association  some  time  last  summer  by  Bro.  A. 
Lewis  and  was  gratified,  not  only  to  find  my  relations  were  following  the  dear  Redeemer,  but 
stood  pretty  high  in  the  Church  of  which  you  are  a  member,  as  also  in  the  Association.  This 
may  be  a  little  pride  in  me,  and  very  likely  is.  It  is  enough,  my  dear  brother,  if  we  are  the 
children  of  God,  that  will  entitle  us  to  a  seat  at  His  right  hand,  where  there  are  pleasures 
forever  more.  I  concluded  on  the  reception  of  the  minutes,  to  write  you  immediately.  But 
while  thy  servant  was  busy  here  and  there,  it  went  out  of  my  head  and  probably  should  not 
have  thought  of  it  again,  but  accidentiy  coming  across  the  minutes  I  determined  to  sit  down 
immediately  and  scribble  off  something  to  you.  My  father  was  named  Philip,  after  whom  I 
was  named.  He  had  ten  children,  viz.:  Charlotte,  Thomas,  Frances,  Catherine,  Penelope, 
Philip  who  died  when  an  infant,  myself,  William  Latane,  Elizabeth  and  Martha.  Thomas, 
Philip,  and  Elizabeth  are  dead,  all  the  rest  are  alive  and,  am  happy  to  inform  you,  are  all 
Baptists.  My  father  and  mother  were  Episcopalians,  and  when  I  can  first  remember,  were 
much  opposed  to  the  Baptists,  and  unwilling  for  their  children  to  attend  Baptist  meetings. 
Consequently  I  do  not  remember  to  have  heard  a  baptist  preach  until  I  was  pretty  much 
grown.  My  convictions  at  the  first  were  but  moderate,  and  by  leaving  my  friends  and  living 
among  young,  wild  persons  I  seemed  to  have  forgotten  it.  And  strange  to  state  never 
returned  until  I  became  a  married  man  and  28  years  old.  Oh  how  good  God  was  to  bear  so 
long  with  me.  But  when  He  attacked  me  the  second  time,  it  was  very  powerful.  I  became 
wretched  and  miserably  alarmed  for  two  or  three  months.  I  ate  no  pleasant  bread  and 
finally  came  near  despair,  when  reading  the  Bible  my  mind  became  somewhat  composed  and 
I  lost  the  weight  of  guilt  which  seemed  to  have  bound  me  down  so  long.  Yet  I  could  not 
believe  in  the  dear  Redeemer.  And  I  was  kept  in  a  state  of  suspense  for  near  two  months 
longer,  in  which  time  I  had  full  confidence  in  the  Christian  religion,  but  I  could  not  believe  for 
myself.  But  God  was  good,  He  who  had  begun  the  good  work  did  carry  it  on,  unto  the  day 
of  Jesus  Christ.     One  evening  a  little  after  dark  I  went  to  prayer  as  usual,  and  while  thus

engaged,  this  text  was  applied  with  much  force,  "  You  hath  he  quickened  who  were  dead  in 
trespasses  and  sin."  Yet  this  did  not  satisfy,  and  when  I  came  in  the  house  I  opened  the 
Bible  and  while  reading,  my  mind  became  quite  tranquil,  there  was  a  thrill  of  joy  seemed  to 
run  through  my  whole  soul,  and  strange  to  tell  I  immediately  believed  in  the  Lord  Jesus 
Christ,  and  two  days  after,  on  Feb.  14th,  1805,  I  was  baptized.  For  several  months  my  mind 
was  troubled  about  preaching.  I  could  get  no  rest,  and  finally  I  became  persuaded,  if  I  did 
not  preach  the  Lord  would  kill  me  and  I  thought  it  would  be  by  lightning.  I  began  to  preach 
the  latter  part  of  the  same  year  [1S05].  I  was  then  living  in  Middlesex  on  a  plantation  left 
me  by  my  father.  A  cousin  of  mine  by  the  same  name  as  myself  commenced  preaching  a 
little  before  me  and  we  frequently  held  meetings  together.  [He  alludes  to  Rev.  Philip  T. 
Montague,  [112], — Compiler.]  In  the  year  1811  1  had  a  call  to  the  care  of  the  church  in  Essex 
called  Piscataway  which  I  accepted,  in  which  bounds  I  have  lived  ever  since.  I  have  gone 
through  much  labor,  and  traveled  a  good  deal.  I  traveled  four  or  five  years  as  a  missionary 
to  the  state  of  Maryland,  during  these  years  I  traveled  about  4000  miles  a  year.  I  have  bap- 
tized since  my  ordination  1303  persons.  I  have  the  care  of  two  churches.  To  one  of  them  I 
preach  three  Sundays  in  the  month,  to  wit,  Mount  Zion,  Howertons  and  Tappahannock :  to 
the  other,  which  is  forty  miles  from  me.  I  preach  one  Sunday  and  the  Saturday  preceeding. 
Yet,  my  dear  brother,  although  I  have  been  so  active,  I  feel  unworthy  of  the  name  of  preacher 
I  am  a  poor  sinner,  yet  believing  in  Him  who  came  to  save  sinners.  I  am  now  54  years  of 
age,  I  have  had  ten  children,  two  are  dead  [the  compiler  has  no  record  of  the  two  who  died]. 
My  wife  and  oldest  daughter  are  Baptists,  and  as  the  greater  part  of  the  rest  are  nearly 
grown,  they  lay  with  much  weight  on  my  mind.  1  should  be  much  gratified  to  receive  a 
letter  from  you.  Do  write  to  me.  Wishing  you  grace,  mercy  and  peace,  both  you  and  yours 
I  remain  in  love,  yours  in  the  dear  Redeemer.  Philip  Montague." 

From  the  words  at  the  beginning  of  the  letter  "and  I  expect  cousin"  it  is  evident  that 
they  had  heard  of  each  other  through  their  church  association,  and  that  neither  knew  what 
degree  of  kinship  existed  between  them.  They  were  fourth  cousins,  because  their  fathers 
Col.  Philip  [24]  and  Thomas  [3175]  were  third  cousins.  The  fathers  of  the  last,  Thomas  Jr. 
[12]  and  William  [3172]  were  second  cousins ;  the  fathers  of  these,  Peter  [9]  and  William 
[3170]  were  first  cousins,  and  the  fathers  of  these  last,  Peter  [4]  and  William  [6]  were 
brothers.

was  Grand  Master  of  that  order,  and  eventually  secured  his  release. 
His  name  appears  in  a  list  of  officers  receiving  military  land  warrants 
issued  prior  to  Dec.  31,  1784.  Two  land  grants  were  awarded  him 
by  Congress  for  his  services,  the  first  of  which  was  secured  by  his 
grandchildren ;  from  the  second  they  derived  no  benefit,  as  it  was 
obtained  by  some  other  party  by  forgery.  He  was  also  entitled  to  a 
share  in  the  French  Spoliation  claims,  but  loss  of  papers  rendered  it 
of  no  avail.  M.  March  19,  1786  [Ch.  ch.  record],  Charlotte  Monta-

#Lee.  This  name  in  England  is  much  older  than  the  Norman 
Conquest  and  is  anciently  derived  from  the  Anglo-Saxon  leah, 
equivalent  to  the  German  loh  and  the  Latin  lucus.  The  modern 
English  word  Lea,  means  a  meadow.  The  name  has  been  variously 
spelled,  Lee,  Lea,  Legh,  Leghe,  Leigh,  Ley,  Leye,  all  having  a  common 
origin.  In  England  it  was  a  large  family,  and  in  1620  there  was 
scarcely  a  Co.  in  England  which  did  not  contain  from  one  to  six  Lee 
seats,  manors,  or  mansions,  while  the  various  Counties  were  dotted 
over  with  Lee  villages,  towns  and  rivers.  Through  the  early  history 
of  England  the  Lees  have  been  noted  for  chivalry,  bravery,  and 
courage  united  with  amiability  and  nobility  of  character.  In  the 
church  of  St.  Albans,  in  Hertfordshire  was  a  very  noble  font  of  solid 
brass  wherein  the  children  of  the  kings  of  Scotland  were  wont  to  be 
baptized ;  which  font  Sir  Richard  Lee  brought,  among  spoils  taken 
in  the  Scotch  wars,  and  gave  to  this  church.  It  bears  the  following 
inscription  in  Latin  :  "When  Leith,  a  town  of  good  account  in  Scot- 
land, and  Edinburgh,  the  principal  city  of  that  nation,  were  on  fire, 
Sir  Richard  Lee,  Knight,  saved  me  out  of  the  flames  and  brought  me

into  England.  In  gratitude  to  him  for  his  kindness,  I,  who  hereto- 
fore served  only  at  the  baptism  of  the  children  of  Kings,  do  now 
most  willingly  offer  the  same  service  even  to  the  meanest  of  the 
English  nation.  Lee,  the  conqueror  hath  so  commanded.  Adieu 
A.  D.  1543  in  the  36th  year  of  King  Henry  VIII."  Camden  men- 
tions Lee,  in  Co.  Chester,  near  the  Mersey  river  "from  whence  is  a 
family  of  the  same  name  famous  not  only  for  its  gentile  race,  but  for 
the  number  of  its  branches." 

In  a  Parochial  chapel  at  Maclesfield  in  Co.  Chester,  on  a  brass 
plate,  is  the  following : 

"  Here  lyeth  the  body  of  Perkin  A.  Lee 
That  for  King  Richard,  the  death  did  dye 
Betrayed  for  righteousness. 
And  the  bones  of  Sir  Peers  his  sonne 
That  with  King  Henry  the  fifth  did  wonne 
In  Paris." 

"This  Perkin  served  King  Edward  III.  and  the  Black  Prince  his 
son,  in  all  their  wars  in  France,  and  was  at  the  battle  of  Cressie,  and 
had  Lyme  given  him  for  that  service.  And  after  their  deaths,  served 
King  Richard  II.  and  left  him  not  in  his  troubles,  but  was  taken 
with  him  and  beheaded  at  Chester,  by  King  Henry  IV.  And  the 
said  Sir  Peers  his  sonne,  served  King  Henry  V.  and  was  slain  at  the 
battle  of  Agencourt.  In  their  memory  Sir  Peter  Lee  of  Lyme, 
Knight,  descended  from  them,  finding  the  said  old  verses  written 
upon  a  stone  in  this  chapel  did  re-edifie  this  place  An.  Dom.  1626." 

Sir  Thomas  Lee,  mayor  of  London  1588,  was  descended  from  this 
Perkin  A.  Lee ;  and  the  father  of  Perkin,  who  was  Robert  Lee  of 
Adlington,  Co.  Chester,  A.  D.  1369,  bore  on  his  shield,  "a  bend, 
cheque,  compony,  gules  and  or,"  very  similar  to  the  fess,  as  shown 
on  the  arms  of  Col.  Richard  Lee  of  Va.  Near  Westbury  in  Wiltshire 
is  the  village  of  Lee,  which  Camden  says  is  the  place  where  King 
Alfred  encamped  the  night  before  he  set  upon  the  Danes  at  Edding- 
ton.  In  the  Vale  of  Alesbury  in  Co.  Buckingham,  was  Quarendon, 
the  seat  of  Sir  Robert  Lee,  Baronet. 

Sir  Edward  Henry  Lee,  who  was  created  Earl  of  Litchfield  in  1674, 
had  his  chief  seat  at  Ditchley  in  Oxfordshire.  He  derived  his  pedi- 
gree from  Sir  Walter  Lee  of  Wyburnbury,  Co.  Chester,  who  derived 
his  name  from  the  lordship  of  Lee  in  the  said  parish,  where  they 
resided  in  the  reign  of  Edward  III.  [1327,  1377].    Sir  Henry  Lee,  a 


I  12 


DESCENDANTS   OF   PETER  MONTAGUE. 


descendant  of  Sir  Walter  of  Co.  Chester,  was  of  the  privy  council  of 
Henry  VII.  and  VIII.  and  a  Knight  of  the  Garter.  He  also  served 
Edward  VI.,  Queen  Mary  and  Queen  Elizabeth,  and  was  very 
eminent  for  his  abilities,  both  as  a  statesman  and  a  soldier.  The 
ancient  arms  of  these  Lees  were  "Argent,  a  fess,  between  three 
•crescents,  sable."  Their  motto  was  "Fide  et  Constantia  "  [by  fidelity 
and  constancy].  Col.  Richard  Lee,  whom  Bishop  Meade  mentions 
as  the  first  Lee  settler  in  Va.,  had  a  mansion  called  "  Cobbs,"  situated 
in  the  parish  of  great  Wycomico,  in  Co.  Northumberland  in  Va. 
Near  to  Cobbs  and  in  sight  of  the  Chesapeake  bay,  Hancock  Lee, 
one  of  the  sons  of  Col.  Richard,  had  an  estate  named  "  Ditchley." 
This  name  would  seem  at  first  sight  to  connect  Col.  Richard  Lee 
with  the  Earl  of  Litchfield  family  in  England,  but  the  coat  of  arms  of 
Col.  Richard  Lee,  if  there  was  no  other  reason,  would  forever  bar  the 
way  to  any  such  connection.  But  there  is  another  reason.  There 
was  no  Earl  of  Litchfield  in  England  until  1674,  at  which  date  Col. 
Richard  Lee  had  been  dead  ten  years.  Sir  Edward  Henry  Lee  was 
the  first  Earl,  and  was  so  created  by  King  Charles  II.  in  1674.  He 
married  Charlotte  Fitzroy,  illegitimate  dau.  of  Charles  II.  by  the 
notorious  Barbara  Villiers.  Charlotte  was  the  second  dau.  of  Barbara 
Villiers  and  was  born  Sept.  5,  1664.  Col.  Richard  Lee's  will  was 
proved  in  court  Jan.,  1665,  he  therefore  died  just  about  the  date  that 
Charlotte  was  born  and  she  could  not  have  been  his  mother.  He 
had  been  dead  many  years  when  she  married  the  Earl  of  Litchfield. 
The  tombstone  of  Richard,  son  of  Col.  Richard  Lee,  who  d.  in  West" 
morelancl,  Va.,  17 14,  aged  68,  states  that  he  was  of  the  ancient  family 
of  Lees  of  Merton  Regis  in  Shropshire.  It  seems  best  to  believe 
that  this  tombstone  was  correct  until  the  contrary  is  proved.  Merton 
is  from  the  Saxon  word  mere,  meaning  large  standing  water.  Merton 
Regis  means  the  Kings-mere  or  mere-royal.  Regis  was  a  common 
affix  sometimes  used,  sometimes  omitted.  Probably  it  originated 
from  the  fact  that  titles  to  land  were,  from  various  causes,  so  often 
in  the  Crown.  Merton  was  variously  spelled  Merriton,  Meriton, 
Meertown,  Meritane,  Meretuna,  Moreton,  Morton,  Marton,  and 
Martin,  and  there  are  few  counties  in  England  which  had  not  a 
locality  spelled  one  way  or  the  other.  The  Saxon  mor  means  a  pool 
or  lake,  about  the  same  meaning  as  mere.  The  Merton-Regis  alluded 
to  on  the  tombstone  has  not  been  located ;  without  a  doubt,  the  place 
existed  in  early  times,  and  fully  identified  the  family  from  which  Col. 


BRANCH  OF  HIS  SOX  PETER. 


Lee  was  descended.  Camden  says  that  "  at  Langley  in  Shropshire, 
one  mile  from  the  castle  of  Acton-Burnel.  lowly  situated  in  a  woody 
park,  is  the  seat  of  the  Lees,  one  of  the  most  ancient  and  honorable 
families  in  these  parts/'  A  note  states  that  the  family  is  extinct.  It 
is  wise  to  look  in  America  for  a  family  said  to  be  extinct  in  England 
in  1650,  unless  such  family  were  in  the  peerage.  Langley  was  south 
of  the  city  of  Shrewsbury  near  Condover.  Within  the  hundred  of 
Shrewsbury,  and  a  few  miles  north  of  the  city,  was  the  parish  of 
Merton,  spelled  Merriton  on  Camden's  map  of  1695.  ^n  tnis  parish 
of  Merton  was  an  ancient  seat  of  the  Lees  named  Lee-Hall,  situated 
a  mile  or  so  from  Merton  parish  church.  At  the  present  day  the 
railroad  from  Shrewsbury  to  Chester  passes  near  the  ancient  Merton 
and  the  station  there  is  named  "Leaton,"  which  appears  to  be 
another  way  of  spelling  Lee-town.  Another  railroad  running  north 
from  Shrewsbury  to  [Manchester,  and  nearly  parallel  to  the  Chester 
railroad,  perhaps  three  miles  from  the  station  of  Leaton.  appears  to 
pass  directly  over  the  site  of  Lee-Hall  as  it  was  located  on  the 
ancient  map.  Thomas  Lee  of  London  descended  from  the  Lees  of 
Lee-Hall  in  Shropshire  was  living  about  the  year  1600.  He  married 
Ann,  a  sister  of  Dr.  John  Warner.  Bishop  of  Rochester  who  died 
1666.  His  son  John  Lee  was  the  Bishop's  heir,  and  in  1630  was 
lord  of  Wormegay  in  Co.  Norfolk.  He  took  the  name  of  Warner 
and  became  the  distinguished  John  Lee  Warner,  D.  D..  Archdeacon 
and  Prebendary  of  Rochester.  His  eldest  son  Henry  Lee  Warner 
was  in  1680  lord  of  Walsingham  Manor  in  Norfolk,  Eng.  There 
was  an  ancient  seat  of  the  Lees  at  Lee  on  the  river  Rodan  south  of 
the  town  of  Wem.  There  was  another  seat  at  Lee-Hall  on  the  river 
Dee.  south  of  the  city  of  Chester.  Besides  the  parochial  seat  of 
Merriton.  near  Shrewsbury,  there  was  a  Meer-town  near  Newport  in 
Co.  Salop.  The  name  Moreton  also  appears  in  that  Co.  "  Col. 
Richard  Lee  of  Va,"  says  Bishop  Meade,  "had  many  children. 
Hancock  Lee  was  his  seventh  son.  John  and  Richard  were  the  two 
eldest.  John  died  before  his  father.  Richard  married  Lettuce,  dau. 
of  Henry  Corbyn  of  Stafford,  he  had  five  sons  and  one  dau.  who 
Wm.  Fitzhugh  of  Eagle's  Nest.  King  George  Co.  The  sons  were 
Richard,  Philip,  Francis.  Thomas  and  Henry.  Richard  settled  in 
London,  but  his  children  George,  Lettuce,  and  Martha  returned  to 
Ya.  George  left  three  sons.      Philip  settled  in  Maryland,  many  of

his  descendants  returned  to  Va.  Francis  died  unmarried.  From 
Thomas  was  descended  Richard  Henry  Lee,  Francis  Lightfoot  Lee, 
and  others  renowned  in  the  Revolution.  Henry  Lee  married  a  Miss 
Bland,  and  from  him  were  descended  many  who  were  bright  orna- 
ments in  the  church,  the  state  and  the  army."  It  may  be  added  that 
from  this  last-mentioned  Henry  Lee  and  Miss  Bland  was  descended 
Gen'l  Robert  E.  Lee. 

"  Ditchley  "  the  Lee  seat  in  Va.  seems  to  have  passed  to  the  Ball 
family.  In  1891,  James  F.  Ball  resided  there,  aged  75  and  infirm. 
His  father,  Joseph  Ball  who  d.  185 1,  was  the  same  Joseph  Ball  who 
visited  William  Montague,  near  Richmond,  in  his  old-fashioned  gig 
in  Dec,  1826.  Joseph  was  son  of  James  Ball  and  grandson  of  Col. 
James  Ball  of  Bewdley.  Col.  Richard  Lee,  in  his  will  describes 
himself  as  of  Virginia  but  late  of  Stratford,  Langdon,  Essex.  This 
place  was  on  the  east  bank  of  the  Lee  river,  and  was  a  suburb  of  the 
city  of  London.  There  were  a  number  of  places  called  Leigh  in 
Essex,  including  a  Leigh  Priory.  There  were  Lee  families  seated  in 
that  Co.  and  Col.  Richard  undoubtedly  owned  property  at  Stratford, 
but  his  ancestry  should  be  sought  for  in  the  Co.  of  Salop. 

On  a  list  of  Baronets,  printed  1738,  is  the  name  of  Sir  Humphrey 
Lee  of  Langley  in  Shropshire,  title  extinct  May  3,  1620.  His  arms 
were  the  same  as  those  of  Col.  Richard  Lee  of  Va.  which  proves  that 
he  belonged  to  a  branch  of  the  same  family.  Sir  Humphrey  Lee  was 
the  son  of  Richard  Lee  of  Langley,  Shropshire.  [See  Burke's  Royal 
Fam.  ped.  CLXV.]  Mary  Lee,  dau.  of  Richard  Lee  of  Langley  and 
sister  of  Sir  Humphrey  Lee,  married  Sir  Henry  Viner,  Kt,  who  died 
1627.  Their  dau.  Mary  Viner  married  Thomas,  son  of  Sir  Thomas 
Bromley,  Lord  Chancellor  of  England.  Sir  Henry  Viner  was  of 
Montague  descent  through  the  Earl  of  March,  son  of  the  Lady 
Philippa  Montagu. 

Effort  has  been  made  to  connect  the  Va.  Lees  with  what  is  some- 
times called  the  "  Quarendon  "  [Co.  Bucks]  family  of  Lees.  The 
Quarendon  family  were  of  the  same  stock  as  the  Earls  of  Litchfield, 
and  derive  their  descent  from  the  same  Sir  Walter  Lee  of  Co. 
Chester.  The  first  Lee  who  ever  settled  at  Quarendon  was  Benedict 
Lee  and  his  wife  Elizabeth,  dau.  of  John  Wood.  From  his  eldest 
brother  Thomas  were  descended  the  Earls  of  Litchfield,  two  brothers, 
John  and   Robert,  were  seated  at  Aston  in  Co.  Stafford;  another 


BRANCH   OF   HIS   SON  PETER. 


brother,  William,  was  seated  in  Co.  Essex.  Said  Benedict  was  the 
son  of  John  Lee  and  Margaret  Hocknell.  He  was  a  great-great- 
grandson  of  Sir  Walter  of  Wyburnbury,  Co.  Chester.  The  original 
arms  of  all  these  Lees  was  "three  leopards'  heads  sable,  between  a 
chevron  sable."  These  arms  were  altered  by  Richard  Lee,  a  nephew 
of  said  Benedict,  to  "three  crescents  sable,  between  a  fess  sable," 
which  have  remained  the  family  arms  through  the  generations  since 
that  time.  This  Richard  Lee  married  Anne,  dau.  of  William 
Saunders  of  Co.  Oxford.  The  Va.  line  of  Lees  should  be  looked  for 
among  the  families  who  bore  the  fess  compony  and  the  billets,  and 
traced  themselves  to  Co.  Salop. 

In  the  time  of  King  Henry  II.  [i  1 5 5]  there  was  a  certain  Hamon 
Lee,  seated  at  High  Lee,  Co.  Chester.  His  great-great-great-grandson 
Robert  Lee,  who  died  1369.  was  seated  at  Adlington,  Co.  Chester. 
He  bore  on  his  shield  "a  bend  counter-compony  [or  cheque]  red  and 
yellow"  [gules  et  or].  From  this  fact,  it  seems  possible  that  the  Lees 
of  Salop  may  have  originally  come  from  Co.  Chester,  at  least,  the 
fess,  cheque,  or  compony  on  their  arms,  seems  to  indicate  it. 

There  were,  on  the  ancient  map,  many  places  suggestive  of  Lee,  in 
Co.  Chester.  Two  Lea  Manors ;  two  Lee-Halls ;  two  Morton 
Manors,  and  a  Morton  Priory;  Moreton-Hall ;  and  Mere-Manor; 
Marton  Manor,  near  the  lake  of  Marten-Mere.  Manors  of  Way- 
Leigh;  Fernly-Leigh ;  Matte-Leigh  and  Leighton :  and  a  river  Lee. 
Besides  High-Leigh  and  Lea  chapel. 

Col.  Richard  Lee  came  to  Va.  1641.  His  will  was  made  in  London, 
Eng.,  Feb.  6,  1663,  proved  in  London  Jan.,  1665.  In  it  he  mentions- 
his  wife  Anna,  children  John,  Francis,  Richard,  William,  Hancock, 
Betsey,  Anne,  Elizabeth  and  Charles. 

The  College  of  Arms  has  the  following  coat  of  arms  :  "  Lee — Gules 
a  fess  chequy,  or  and  azure,  between  eight  billets  argent.  Col. 
Richard  Lee,  Secretary  of  State  in  Va.  A.  D.  1659,  descended  from 
the  Lees  in  Shropshire  [who  sometimes  bore  eight  billets  and  some- 
times ten,  and  sometimes  ye  fesse  counter-compone]."  These  arms 
are  found  cut  or  engraved  over  the  door  of  Col.  Lee's  house, 
"  Cobbs,"  on  the  Chesapeake  Bay  in  Va.  except  that  there  are  ten 
billets  instead  of  eight.  Queens  College,  Oxford,  has  a  silver  pint 
cup,  presented  to  the  College  1658  by  John  Lee,  son  of  Col.  Richard, 
which  has  the  Lee  family  arms  engraved  upon  it  [with  eight  billets]y. 
with  the  following  inscription  in  Latin  :

The  Merton-Regis  on  the  tombstone  in  Va.  is  here  called  Morton- 
Regis.  Both  were  correct  at  the  time.  The  mode  of  spelling  was  a 
matter  of  no  significance  provided  the  initial  letter  of  the  word 
remained  unchanged.  One  way  was  as  correct  as  another.  Camden 
in  his  preface,  1623,  says  about  spelling,  that  "in  the  memory  of  one 
man  one  place  has  been  spelled  five  different  ways."  The  N.  E. 
Hist,  and  Gen.  Reg.  says,  "  Morton-Regis  is  a  locality  which  cannot 
be  identified  now  if  correctly  spelled,  but  if,  as  seems  most  probable, 
it  is  an  error  for  Norton  Regis,  all  becomes  clear  at  once,  that  being  a 
common  form  for  writing  Nordley  Regis,  one  of  the  seats  of  the  Lees  in 
Co.  Salop."  Nordley  Regis  was  located  on  the  border  line  between 
Salop  and  Stafford.  It  is  sometimes  put  down  on  the  maps  with  the 
affix  "  Regis  "  and  sometimes  without  such  affix,  and  sometimes  is 
printed  "Norley."  "It  came  into  the  Langley  Lee  family  by  mar-

Phila.,  Pa.],  but  the  ancient  Lee  seat  was  at  Lea-Hall,  north  of 
Shrewsbury.  "Lea-Hall  was  the  cradle  of  the  Salop  Lees."  [J.  Henry 
Lea,  Cedarhurst,  Mass.] 

Edmondson's  Heraldry  gives  the  arms  of  Lee,  of  Cotton  and 
Langley  in  Shropshire,  as  "  Gules,  a  fess  compony,  or  and  azure, 
between  eight  billets,  argent."  Crest,  "on  a  staff  raguly,  a  squirell 
cracking  a  nut,  from  dexter  end  of  staff  an  oak  branch  fructed,  all 
proper."  Hist,  of  John  Lee  of  Farmington,  Conn.,  by  Sarah  Nash 
Lee,  Norwich,  Conn.,  1878,  says  "Richard  Lee  was  third  son  of 
Launcelot  Lee  of  Cotton  in  Shropshire.  Came  to  Va.  1 640-1  as 
secretary  of  the  Colonial  Governor  Lord  Fairfax,  finally  settled  at 
York  on  James  river,  1647.  was  °f  tne  family  of  Lee  of  Cotton, 

near  Bridgenorth  the  seat  of  Launcelot  Lee,  and  he  became  the 
ancestor  of  the  Lees  of  Va."    This  pedigree  has  since  been  disputed. 

Since  the  above  was  written  the  following  has  been  received  from 
Rev.  J.  Mackay,  Vicar  of  Leaton,  Salop,  Eng.,  whose  vicarage  is 
within  three  miles  of  Lea  Hall.  "  The  present  owner  of  Lee  Hall  is 
Sir  Raymond  Tyrwhitt  whose  grandfather  bought  the  estate  from

descendants  of  the  Lee  family  as  the  paper  below  relates,"  to  wit. 
pedigree — John  de  Lee  Lord  of  Biriton,  Edward  I.  and  others. 
Richard  Lee  of  Langley,  sheriff  of  Salop  1387  ;  Rudulphus  de  Lee; 
Richard  dee  Lee  de  Langley,  sheriff  of  Salop  1479:  Fulco  Lee  de 
Langley ;  Thomas  Lee  de  Langley  married  Jane,  dau.  of  Rob.  Corbet 
of  Morton,  Kt.,  and  had  1,  Richard  Lee  of  Langley.  Jervinmas, 
Thomas  and  seven  daughters.  Richard  1,  above  mentioned,  m. 
Eleanor,  dau.  of  Walter  Wrottesley  of  Wrottesley,  Co.  Stafford,  and 
had  2,  Humphrey  Lee  of  Langley.  Walter,  Francis,  Edward,  and  six 
daughters.  Humphrey  Lee  2,  above  mentioned,  sheriff  1600,  Baro- 
net 1620,  m.  Margaret,  dau.  of  Reg  Corbet.  Judge  of  King's  Bench, 
and  had  3,  Richard  Lee  and  four  daughters.  Richard  Lee  3.  above 
mentioned,  was  alderman  of  London,  he  m.  Elizabeth,  dau.  of  Sir 
Allen,  Kt.,  and  had  Mary  Lee.  co-heir,  who  m.  Edward  Smythe  ; 
Humphrey  Lee ;  Elizabeth  :  Rachel,  co-heir,  who  m.  Ralph  Cleaton, 
she  had  Lea  Hall ;  Richard.  Francis.  Sir  Humphrey  Lee  of  Lee 
Hall,  Langley,  and  Acton  Burnell  was  4th  in  descent  from  Richard 
Lee,  sheriff  in  1479.  His  son.  Sir  Richard  Lee  2d  Baronet,  was  an 
eminent  sufferer  for  Charles  L,  compounded  for  his  estates  for  ^"3719, 
d.  one  month  before  the  Restoration  having  had  five  sons  and  four 
daus."    [See  Sheriffs  of  Shropshire,  pp.  97-98.] 

Camden  says  the  Langley  branch  of  Lee  was  extinct  at  death  of 
Sir  Humphrey,  but  evidently  he  referred  to  the  branch  of  eldest  sons 
who  in  England  succeeded  to  title  and  estate.  It  is  probable  that 
Col.  Richard  Lee  of  Va.  was  descended  from  some  one  of  the  younger 
sons  mentioned  on  above  pedigree.  The  Meriton  mentioned  on 
Camden's  map  of  1695  as  parochial  and  which  was  near  Lea  Hall, 
now  bears  the  name  of  Merrington,  and  is.  with  Lee  Hall,  in  the 
parish  of  Preston-Gubbals  according  to  Eyton's  Antiq.  Salop. 

Rev.  Mr.  Mackay,  the  Vicar  of  Leaton  who  resides  near  Lee  Hall, 
says,  "  from  the  road  it  looks  a  most  picturesque  old  mansion  house 
which  everyone  admires,  both  on  account  of  its  ancient  appearance 
and  line  situation."

Mary  College,  Williamsburg,  Jan.  29.  1893.  "The  York  Co.  records 
show  that  at  the  time  Col.  Richard  Lee  was  a  magistrate  of  York  Co.

bond  together  and  in  this  bond  Mrs.  Sibella  Felgate,  wife  of  Capt. 
Robert  Felgate  gentleman  of  Felgate's  Creek,  York  Co.,  is  described 
as  the  mother  of  John  Adkins  the  brother  of  Marah,  wife  of  Henry 
Lee.  This  Henry  Lee  married  Marah  Adkins.  The  wills,  etc.,  of 
Dr.  Henry  Lee's  family  are  in  the  records  of  York  and  the  family  is 
pretty  distinctly  traced.  Major  Baker  P.  Lee  was  of  this  family.  The 
old  Lee  residence  is  still  standing  in  York  Co.,  not  far  from  '  Lee 
Hall,'  on  the  C.  &  O.  railroad." 

Mr.  Alexander  Brown  of  Norwood,  Va.,  author  of  "  Genesis  of  U. 
S.,"  under  date  Feb.  6,  1893,  says,  "I  have  extracts  from  York  Co. 
records  showing  that  Henry  Lee  was  there  in  1642,  Richard  in  1652, 
and  William  in  1660."  Also  he  encloses  a  list  of  eight  names  of 
Lees  who  were  in  old  Albermarle  Co.  prior  to  1761,  when  there  were 
only  1344  white  tithables  in  the  County,  to  wit:  Ambrose  Lee,  James 
Lee,  John  Lee,  Richard  Lee,  Robert  Lee,  Thomas  Lee,  Timothy  Lee, 
William  Lee,  and  George  Lee  soon  after  1761. 

Also  soldiers  from  old  Amherst  [now  Nelson  and  Amherst]  who 
were  in  the  Revolution  1776,  Francis  Lee,  Richard  Lee.

M.  Earle,  since  deceased.  It  was  written  to  the  compiler  in  1890. 
Major  Earle  says,  "I  remember  my  grandfather,  Henry  Montague, 
well.  He  was  an  earnest  and  interesting  man  and  prided  himself 
upon  his  independence  ;  he  was  just  in  his  dealings,  saved  his  money 
and  never  went  in  debt.  He  always  paid  cash  for  what  he  bought 
and  gave  his  offspring  lessons  of  economy  and  industry.  He  was  a 
regular  communicant  of  the  Baptist  church ;  was  never  known  to  use

*  Owen  was  a  personal  name  in  Wales ;  a  few  may  be  of  Saxon  blood  for  there  is  an 
Owine  in  the  Domesday,  Yorkshire,  and  a  still  earlier  Owine  occurs  in  the  "  Codex  Diplo- 
matics."  It  was  one  of  the  most  common  Welsh  surnames.  The  Owens  of  Tedsmore  Hall 
in  Denbighshire  are  descended  from  Howell  Dha,  and  the  Kings  of  South  Wales,  but  the 
first  of  the  family  who  wrote  himself  Owen  was  Roland  Owen,  sheriff  of  Montgomeryshire  in 
1610.  The  Owens  of  Glynason  descend  from  Llywarch-ap-Bran,  lord  of  Menai  in  Anglesea, 
founder  of  the  second  noble  tribe  of  North  Wales  and  Powys.  The  Owens  of  Orielton,  Co. 
Pembroke,  Barts,  spring  from  Hova-ap-Kundhelw,  a  nobleman  of  North  Wales  who  lived 
about  the  year  1130,  and  was  one  of  the  fifteen  peers.  Fourteen  coats  of  arms  are  mentioned 
two  are  here  given  :  "Gules,  a  chevron  between  three  lions,  rampant,  or,"  and  Owen  [Wales] 
"Argent,  three  ravens'  legs  erased,  sable,  meeting  in  the  fess  point,  talons  extended  into  the 
three  acute  corners  of  the  escutcheon."

27,  1783,  Harry  Beverly  Yates.*    [Ch.  ch.  records.] 

The  marriage  bond  on  M.  records  bears  date,  Feb.  24,  1783. 
Thomas  Segar  signed  marriage  bond.  In  the  settlement  of  the 
estate  of  Col.  James  Montague,  her  name  is  mentioned  as  his  dau. 
inheriting  certain  negroes  bequeathed  by  her  grandfather  Joseph 
Chinn.  The  witnesses  were  Philip  and  Peter  Montague.  There  is 
also  an  entry  of  cash  from  Harry  B.  Yates  toward  his  wife's  part  of 
her  father's  debts.  Mr.  Harry  B.  Yates  was  a  relative  of  Rev.  Bar- 
tholomew Yates  who  was  pastor  of  Christ  church,  Middlesex.  He 
was  a  brother  of  Catherine  Yates,  who  m.  Capt.  John  Montague. 
Miss  Mary  Yates,  whose  will  mentions  Elizabeth  Montague,  was  also 
his  sister.     The  estate  was  settled  in  1769,  and  was  divided  among 

in  London  in  1616,  aged  103.  From  him  the  Gloucester  Graves  derive  their  pedigree.  Their 
arms  were  "  Gu.  an  eagle  displayed ;  or,  beaked,  membered  and  ducally  crowned,  ar.  bet  eight 
cross-crosslets  of  the  second."  The  arms  of  the  Salop  family  were  "Or,  a  trefoil  flipped, 
vert."  In  Va.,  Middlesex  Will  Book  for  1740,  p.  4,  has  the  will  of  Alexander  Graves,  he 
mentions  wife  Mary,  youngest  dau.  Amy  Tyler,  and  grandchild  Mary  Philips.  Thomas 
Graves,  also  George  Gr;  ves  and  his  wife  Mrs.  Graves  are  on  the  list  of  living  in  Va.,  1623. 
On  the  muster  roll  of  1624  we  find  the  names  of  Robert  Graves,  came  on  the  "Southampton," 
1623;  another  George  Grcves  came  on  the  "  Sea  Venture"  and  Elinor  his  wife  came  on  the 
"  Susan,"  and  John  Graves  "  their  sonne  aged  10  yeres."  Also  the  name  of  Capt.  Thomas 
Graves  who  came  in  the  "  Mary  and  Margrett "  in  1607. 

*  Yates.  This  name  is  derived  from  "  Yate-Stoop"  in  the  dialect  of  North  of  England, 
meaning  a  gate-post.  Gates  is  another  form  of  the  name.  Sometimes  Yate  appears  to 
signify  a  goat.  I  he  ancient  arms  of  the  family  were  "  Per  chevron,  or  and  gu,  three  gates 
countercharged  two  and  one."  Again,  Yates  of  Cos.  Wilts,  Bucks,  Oxford,  Berks,  etc., 
"  Per  fesse  crenellee,  or  and  gu,  three  gates  countercharged."  Katherine  Yates,  age  19,  came 
to  Va.  in  ship  "  Boneventure,"  in  Jan.,  1634;  John  Yates,  age  20,  came  in  the  "America," 
June  23,  1635  ;  Robert  Yates,  age  25,  came  in  ship  "  Globe,"  Aug.  7,  1635  ;  Mr.  Yates  is  men- 
tioned on  list  of  the  living  in  Va.  in  1623.  And  the  muster  roll  of  1624  has  the  name  of 
Edward  Yates,  age  18,  came  in  the  "  Duty,"  1619,  and  living  at  Sir  George  Yeardleyson  Hogg 
Island.  See  full  pedigree  of  Yates  in  "  Va.  Genealogies,"  by  Rev.  Horace  Edwin  Hayden,

No  shape,  but  substance,  true  nobility. 

Itself  though  young  in  years,  just  twenty-nine, 

Yet  graced  with  virtues  moral  and  divine  ; 

The  church  from  him  did  good  participate, 

In  counsel  rare,  fit  to  adorn  a  state." 
In  the  mansion  house  on  this  farm  Lord  Cornwallis  met  Washington  and  signed  the

Capt.  Henry  Daniel,  son  of  James  and  Elizabeth  [Montague  51] 
Daniel,  b.  March  15,  1786,  in  Louisa  Co.,  Va. 

He  came  to  Ky.  with  his  brother  Jesse  in  1795,  when  he  was  a 
youth.  He  studied  law  under  Hon.  Henry  Clay,  for  whom  he  had  a 
great  respect,  but  they  never  agreed  in  politics  after  Mr.  Clay  voted 
for  Mr.  John  Quincy  Adams.  After  Capt.  Daniel  obtained  his  license: 
to  practice  law,  he  settled  in  Mount  Sterling,  Montgomery  Co.,  Ky., 
and  became  a  distinguished  lawyer  and  politician.  In  1812  he  raised 
a  company,  was  elected  captain  of  it,  and  joined  the  Northwestern- 
army  and  acquitted  himself  very  honorably.  He  was  then  States. 
Attorney  for  several  years.  He  was  several  times  elected  to  the.: 
Legislature  of  Ky.  and  in  1827  was  elected  to  Congress.  He  was. 
elected  a  member  of  Congress  three  times  consecutively  ;  but  in  the 
quarrel  between  Gen.  Jackson  [then  President]  and  Mr.  Calhoun, 
Capt.  Daniel  took  sides  with  Mr.  Calhoun,  and  the  popularity  of 
President  Jackson  was  too  much  for  him  to  encounter,  and  he 
declined  the  race  in  1833.  He  then  retired  from  politics,  removed 
to  Fayette  Co.  on  a  farm,  and  engaged  to  a  limited  extent  in  rearing 
blooded  horses,  breeding  and  raising  a  mare  that  he  called  "  Maria. 
Louisa "  which  became  very  distinguished  among  racers.  After 
being  elected  to  the  Legislature  from  Fayette  Co.  he  returned  to 
Montgomery  Co.  and  resumed  the  practice  of  law.  "  He  was  Presi- 
dential Elector  in  1837,  voting  for  President  Harrison." — H.  He 
served  as  a  member  of  Congress  from  1827  to  1833  inclusive..

He  m.,  Oct.  12,  1809,  Louisa  Thomson,  she  d.  June  10,  1859.  In 
187 1  Capt.  Daniel  made  his  home  at  the  residence  of  Judge  B.  J.- 
Peters* of  Mount  Sterling,  Ky.  [Judge  of  the  Court  of  Appeals]  an 
old  and  life-long  friend.  He  died  in  his  house  Oct.  5,  1873,  aged 
87,  fully  possessed  of  all  his  mental  faculties,  and  full  of  gratitude  to 
Judge  and  Mrs.  Peters  for  all  their  kindness  to  him.

the  Va.  Legislature.  He  was  one  of  five  members  who  founded  the 
Presbyterian  church  in  Christiansburgh,  namely,  Dr.  Joseph  S.  Eddie, 
Mr.  William  Wade,  Rice  D.  Montague,  Mrs.  Nancy  Bowyer,  and  her 
sister  Mary,  Mrs.  Creed  Taylor,  both  daughters  of  James  Craig,  one 
of  the  first  settlers  of  Montgomery  Co.  Mrs.  Craig  was  sister  of 
Gen.  Montgomery  who  was  killed  at  the  storming  of  Quebec  (Can- 
ada). The  above  three  men  were  the  first  ruling  elders  chosen,  and 
served  as  such  until  their  death.  Mr.  Montague  was  a  promoter  of 
all  good  works  calculated  to  build  up  the  town  ;  liberal  in  giving 
money  to  erect  churches,  schools,  etc.  From  his  long  experience  as 
county  clerk,  his  legal  opinion  and  advice  was  much  sought  after  and 
often  accepted,  thus  saving  to  many  parties  useless  costs  and  loss  of 
time  in  suits  at  law.  A  famous  Judge  of  the  court  of  appeals  stated 
that  records  prepared  by  him  were  the  neatest  and  most  correct  of 
any  furnished  by  any  clerk  in  the  state.

*  The  mother  of  Mary  McClanahan  was  a  descendant  of  Gen'l  Andrew  Lewis,  whose 
memory  is  preserved  by  a  statue  in  bronze,  at  Richmond,  Va.  This  Gen;l  Andrew  Lewis 
was  the  son  of  John  Lewis,  who  is  mentioned  in  Howes'  Hist,  of  Va.  as  having  slain  an  Irish 
lord,  which  fact  is  engraved  on  his  tombstone  in  Augusta  Co.  John  Lewis  married  Margaret 
Lynn,  dau.  of  the  Laird  of  Loch  Lynn,  Scotland.  He  took  her  to  Ireland,  rented  an  estate 
of  Lord  Mungo  Campbell.  The  lord  tired  of  his  bargain,  requested  Lewis  to  give  up  the 
lease,  which  he  refused  to  do,  whereupon  his  lordship  fired  his  gun  at  Lewis,  missed  him,  but 
wounded  Lewis's  sister  who  was  sick  in  bed.  Lewis  rushed  upon  the  lord  with  his  sword  and 
slew  him.  ^500  was  offered  for  his  capture,  but  the  Kyles  and  their  numerous  kin,  the  Mc- 
Clarens,  McDowells,  McKelveys,  Gibsons,  Henrys,  etc.,  wealthy  and  powerful  citizens, 
believing  that  Lewis  was  right,  concealed  him  and  shipped  him  and  his  family  to  America. 
The  matter  was  afterward  investigated,  and  George  III.  sent  Mr.  Lewis  a  pardon  and  a  grant 
of  30,000  acres  of  land  in  Augusta  Co.,  Va.  The  Lewis  family  were  from  France,  originally 
Huguenots,  settled  in  Wales,  three  of  them — William,  Samuel,  and  Andrew.  Andrew  mar- 
ried a  Miss  Calhoun.  One  of  his  sons  was  Col.  John,  who  married  Margaret  Lynn.  They 
had  six  children  in  Augusta  Co.,  of  whom  were  three  sons,  Thomas,  John,  and  Gen'l  Andrew 
Lewis  who  married  a  Miss  Givins  of  Staunton.  He  commanded  at  Point  Pleasant,  and  with 
1100  men,  after  an  all-day,  hard-fought  battle,  whipped  the  great  Indian  chief  Cornstalk,  and 
Virginia  honored  him  with  a  statue  in  bronze.  He  had  six  children,  the  fourth,  Col.  Andrew 
Lewis  married  Eliza  Madison  (sister  of  Bishop  Madison)  of  Montgomery  Co.;  the  fifth,

His  wife,  Mrs.  Jennings,  was  a  lovable  character.  A  son-in-law 
always  said  of  her,  "  she  was  the  best  woman  I  ever  knew."  Her 
virtues  embraced  all  that  ever  embellish  human  character,  and  to 
human  vision  she  was  one  of  the  few  whom  all  pronounced  a  perfect 
character.  She  lived  to  the  ripe  age  of  75  years,  in  the  devoted  love 
of  the  large  and  influential  family  she  had  seen  grow  up  around  her. 
She  d.  March  12,  1868,  a  member  of  the  Second  Baptist  church  of

leader  of  the  church  choir,  church  clerk,  deacon,  and  superintendent

had  lived  the  life,  he  died  the  death  of  the  Christian,  Oct.  8.  1874, 
having  closely  followed  his  faithful  companion,  with  whom  he  had

sickness.  Both  passed  away  as  quietly  as  the  going  out  of  a  candle, 
without  apparently  a  single  pain  on  the  last  bed  of  sickness.  In 
devotion  to  the  memory  and  in  contemplation  of  the  virtues  of  loved 
ones  who  have  passed  to  the  other  shore,  led  by  the  hand  of  the 
loving  Father,  where  no  storm  ever  beats,  we  may  pause  in  meditation

As  memory  crowds  upon  memory,  we  recall  here  and  there  the 
kind  word  and  the  kind  deed  which  have  served  to  soften  a  pang  of 
woe  or  relieve  a  suffering  want.  We  cannot  forget  the  tear  of  sym- 
pathy that  has  been  shed  in  the  house  of  mourning,  where  sorrow 
reigned  supreme,  nor  the  strong  arm  to  help  that  has  been  extended 
to  the  humble  abode  of  the  poor,  in  want.  We  recall  how  heart  and 
head  combined  to  fill  the  sphere  marked  out  by  Heaven.  Such 
reflections  cluster  around  the  memory  of  Martha  McClenny.  Her 
social  life  was  a  beautiful  exemplification  of  her  Christian  character. 
There  was  nothing  of  icy  coldness  about  her,  for  a  warm  heart  beat 
within  her  bosom  and  the  fire  of  religious  zeal  was  kept  burning 
brightly  on  the  altar  of  the  heart.  She  had  a  strong  emotional  nature 
and  all  her  kin  were  loved  with  a  warmth  of  love.  Her  cultivated 
and  refined  taste  made  her  well-ordered  home  the  abode  of  comfort, 
happiness  and  hospitality.  The  passing  stranger  that  called  in, 
working  in  her  Master's  vineyard,  knew  that  a  hospitable  reception 
was  found  under  her  roof,  and  there  are  many  to  attest  the  kind 
services  rendered  them.  An  affectionate  wife,  a  devoted  mother,  a 
constant  friend,  a  kind  and  generous  neighbor,  a  devout  Christian, 
she  peacefully  rests  beneath  the  sod  awaiting  the  time  of  the  redeemed 
in  Christ.

She  was  a  member  of  the  Baptist  church.  He  survived  her  less  than 
three  months,  and  d.  at  the  advanced  age  of  85  years.  Dec.  11,  1883, 
leaving  a  large  family.  In  this  family  there  was  a  decidedly  marked 
characteristic  in  the  exalted  love  and  esteem  one  bore  for  the  other. 
It  was  pre-eminently  a  happy  family,  where  wrongs  never  invaded  the 
sacred  precincts  of  the  happy  home.  The  pleasing  spectacle  of 
devoted  love  of  parents  to  child,  and  the  requital  of  respect  and 
devotion,  attracted  the  admiration  of  the  visitor.  Mrs.  Moseley  was 
an  estimable  woman,  well  fitted  to  rear  her  large  family,  of  which, 
with  her  bright,  cheerful,  and  joyous  nature,  she  was  the  central 
figure.  She  had  traveled  the  journey  of  life  with  her  devoted  hus- 
band, hand  in  hand  and  heart  in  heart,  for  nearly  half  a  century  of 
their  lives.  Their  feelings,  tastes,  desires,  had  become  almost  one, 
and  in  writing  of  one  it  is  difficult  to  separate  the  pair  for  "  they 
twain  "  had  "  become  one  flesh."  The  unity  of  love  and  feeling 
between  mother  and  father  impressed  itself  upon  the  child.  Both 
were  endowed  by  nature  with  a  fine  order  of  mind  and  had  cultivated 
literary  tastes.  They  were  both  great  readers  to  the  time  of  their 
death,  and  in  neither  was  there  perceptable  impairment  of  mental 
vigor.  Mrs.  Moseley  in  her  old  age  could  repeat  with  striking  effect 
in  her  animated  conversation  long  stanzas  from  Scott's  Marmion. 
which  she  had  learned  in  childhood.  Both  were  good  and  true 
people,  such  as  are  not  met  every  day.  Mr.  Moseley,  while  a  strict 
business  man  and  an  independent  thinker,  was  as  kind  and  tender  in 
his  emotions  as  a  child,  He  was  a  great  lover  of  truth  and  justice 
and  abhorred  wrong.  Just  before  his  death,  he  remarked  to  a  friend, 
that  he  desired  to  be  remembered  only  as  one  "  who  had  dealt  justly, 
loved  mercy,  and  walked  humbly  before  God."  What  a  legacy  to  his 
children  are  these  last  words  of  a  dying  father,  than  which  no  prince 
or  potentate  could  leave  a  greater.

clergyman  of  distinction  of  the  Baptist  denomination  of  the  state,  and

few  men  have  lived,  more  esteemed  and  who  have  done  more  real 
good,  than  he.    His  life  was  devoted  principally  to  teaching,  of  which,

in  the  discharge  of  duty  to  her  God.  her  husband,  her  children,  and 
society,  she  passes  the  evening  of  life  in  the  consciousness  of  duty

the  harvester,  she  lives  and  waits,  with  her  Christian  faith,  the  calm 
sunshine  of  her  soul,  not  as  one  who  "feels  a  thousand  deaths  in. 
fearing  one."     She  is  a  member  of  the  Baptist  church.     She  spends

Cree  in  Galloway  by  discovering  of  a  foord  which  gave  great  advantage  to  his  party."  Hence 
he  got  the  name  of  Cree-foord  or  Crawford.     The  family  arms  were,   "  Ar.  a  chief.

useful  life.  For  several  years  she  had  been  the  victim  of  the  dis- 
tressing disease  of  dropsy  of  the  heart,  and  the  intense  pain  she 
underwent  for  weary  months  and  years  was  a  source  of  deepest 
distress  to  friends  and  dear  ones  who  witnessed  her  suffering.  Amidst 
all,  her  faith  never  faltered,  and  she  frequently  reminded  those  who 
attended  her  that  she  was  ready  for  the  final  summons.  She  had 
been  a  member  of  the  M.  E.  church,  South,  from  her  early  years  and 
was  one  of  its  ardent  lovers.  She  practiced  the  precepts  and  religion 
that  it  teaches,  and  in  all  of  the  relations  of  daughter,  wife,  sister, 
mother,  and  friend,  their  results  were  attested.  Husband  and  children 
mourn  her  loss.  Friends  weep  that  she  is  no  more.  The  hand  that 
bestowed  its  charities,  with  a  lavishness  seldom  seen,  is  extended  no 
more,  and  deserving  objects  that  miss  its  kindly  deeds  are  bowed  in 
sorrow.  An  unselfish  life  is  ended.  Its  efforts  and  industry  were 
united  and  exercised  solely  for  the  good  and  comfort  of  others  and 
the  blotting  out  of  such  a  life  is  a  sad,  sad,  loss.  But  suffering  with 
her  is  ended.  In  the  shadow  of  the  Tree  of  Life  she  rests,  sweetly 
rests  from  her  labors,  and  her  works  do  follow  her."

The  following  is  from  the  pen  of  Rev.  W.  C.  Hall,  a  pious,  good 
man  who  resided  in  Cumberland  many  years,  and  is  copied  from  the 
Columbia  Bulletin  of  April  23,  189 1  :  "The  death  of  Mrs.  Flanagan 
has  brought  to  my  mind  many  pleasing  memories  of  her  childhood, 
my  own  youthful  days  and  intimate  association  with  her  parents  and 
the  older  members  of  the  family.  Mrs.  Flanagan  was  the  youngest 
child  of  Captain  William  Montague,  an  old  and  esteemed  citizen  of 
Cumberland  county.  Living  all  his  days  within  a  few  miles  of 
Columbia,  and  members  of  his  family  being  citizens  from  time  to 
time,  together  with  the  old  gentleman's  frequent  visits  and  business 
engagements  in  our  town,  made  him  to  a  great  extent  identified  with 
us  as  a  citizen.  I  desire  to  speak  of  him  as  an  old  and  honored 
friend  and  can  say  in  behalf  of  all  who  knew  him.  that  he  was 
regarded  in  that  light  by  all  his  neighbors  and  acquaintances,  and 
well  deserved  their  esteem.  Captain  Montague  married  early  in  life 
and  settled  about  four  miles  from  Columbia,  where  he  built  up  for 
himself  and  family  a  plain  but  comfortable  home,  in  which  he  raised 
up  a  large  family  of  children  and  lived  out  his  own  days  in  peace  and 
quietness.  He  was  remarkably  industrious  and  domestic  in  his 
habits,  and  even  when  he  had  become  so  old  and  feeble  as  to  be 
almost  helpless,  would  still  manage  to  do  some  little  jobs  about  the 
house  or  yard  for  the  comfort  of  his  family  to  whose  interest  he  was 
most  affectionately  devoted.  He  was  for  many  years  a  Justice  of  the 
Peace  in  his  Co.  and  few  men  ever  performed  the  duties  of  the  office 
more  faithfully  and  conscienciously.  He  obeyed  the  scripture  injunc- 
tion to  k  Study  the  things  that  make  for  peace,"  and  his  counsels  led 
the  way  to  settle  many  questions  in  dispute  without  litigation.  He 
trained  up  his  family  by  precept  and  example,  to  walk  in  the  ways  of 
peace.  His  wife  was  one  of  the  best  of  women  and  a  true  and  faith- 
ful helpmate  to  him  through  a  long  life,  which  they  spent  lovingly 
together.  Xever  have  I  known  two  people  more  like-minded  in  all 
the  peaceful  and  quiet  walks  of  life.  Both  lived  far  beyond  the  time 
alloted  to  man  on  earth,  and  now  they  rest  side  by  side  in  the  garden 
of  the  home  that  was  their  only  one  from  youth  to  the  end  of  a  long 
life.  Mrs.  F.  was  a  worthy  daughter  of  parents  deserving  all  honor, 
and  has  doubtless  joined  them  and  other  loved  ones  in  the  '  Better 
Land.'  Most  of  the  family  have  been  gathered  there  and  those  who 
are  living  may  claim  a  heritage  far  above  all  the  distinctions  that 
wealth  or  worldly  honors  can  give,  the  descendants  of  '  parents 
passed  into  the  skies'."

May  15,  1783,  in  Va.,  d.  July  20,  1831.  Mr.  Todd  was  b.  in  Va., 
but  resided  in  Frankfort,  Ky.     He  was  son  of  William  Todd.  All 

*  Ford  is  derived  from  a  shallow  place  in  a  river.  Their  arms  were  "  Gu,  two  bends 
Vaire,  on  a  canton,  or,  an  anchor  sable."  Eleven  coats  have  been  granted  to  the  name. 
Adrian  Ford,  age  26,  came  to  Va.  on  ship  "  Paule,"  July  7,  1635,  Charles  Ford,  age  33,  came 
in  same  ship. 

t  The  origin  of  the  name  Todd  was  from  Tod,  an  archaic  and  provincial  name  of  the  fox. 
"  Wily  Tod"  occurs  in  the  writings  of  Wickliffe.  Hunters  of  foxes  were  called  "Tod- 
hunters."  The  arms  of  the  Todds  of  Essex,  Eng.,  was  "  Three  wolves'  heads  couped,  gules." 
Crest,  "a  wolf  segant,  proper."  William  Todd,  the  father  of  George  Todd,  was  a  brother  of 
Judge  Thomas  Todd,  one  of  the  Justices  of  the  Supreme  Court  of  the  U.  S.  Charles  S. 
Todd,  a  son  of  Judge  Thomas  Todd  was  appointed  Minister  to  Russia  by  President  William 
H.  Harrison,  and  remained  there  four  years.  Both  William  and  Thomas  Todd  were  sons  of 
Richard  Todd,  and  were  born  in  King  and  Queen  Co.,  Va.,  on  the  York  river.  Their  mother 
[the  wife  of  Richard  Todd]  was  Elizabeth  Richards.  Mrs.  Abraham  Lincoln,  [Mary  Todd] 
was  the  dau.  of  Hon.  Robert  S.  Todd,  and  he  was  a  son  of  Levi  Todd,  one  of  the  few 
survivors  of  the  battle  of  Blue  Licks  in  1782.  Levi  Todd  was  a  native  of  Pennsylvania,  and 
a  brother  of  Col.  John  Todd  who  was  educated  in  Va.  at  his  Uncle's,  the  Rev.  John  Todd. 
Col.  John  came  to  Ky.  m  1775  to  Boonesborough,  was  member  of  the  Legislature.  He  was 
the  great-uncle  of  Mrs.  Lincoln.  In  Dec.  1778,  he  was  appointed  by  Patrick  Henry,  Gov.  of 
Va.,  to  be  lieutenant  of  the  Co.  of  Illinois,  then  a  part  of  Va.  He  was  one  of  the  original 
proprietors  of  the  town  of  Lexington,  Ky.  While  encamped  on  the  site  of  the  present  city, 
he  heard  of  the  opening  battle  of  the  Revolution,  and  named  his  infant  settlement  Lexington 
in  its  honor.  He  was  killed  at  the  battle  of  Blue  Licks.  Levi  Todd,  the  brother  of  Col.  John 
first  located  at  Harrodsburg,  Ky.,  settled  a  station  in  Fayette  Co.,  ten  miles  southwest  from 
Lexington  in  1779.  Afterward  moved  to  Lexington  and  became  distinguished  among  the 
early  settlers.  [See  Collins'  Hist.  Ky.,  Arnold's  Life  of  Lincoln,  p.  68.  The  Century  Mag- 
azine, Jan.,  1887,  p.  378.]  Richard  Todd  of  King  and  Queen  Co.,  Va.,  Rev.  John  Todd,  also 
of  Va.,  and  his  brother  in  Penn.  [father  of  Levi  and  Col.  John]  were  all  no  doubt  branches  of 
the  same  family  of  Todds.  Thomas  Todd  of  Gloucester  Co.,  Va.,  had  sons  Richard,  William, 
Philip,  and  Christopher  Todd.  Richard  had  sons  Bernard,  and  William  Todd.  [Hen.  Stat.

is  from  a  Richmond  paper :  "In  the  con- 
scientious discharge  of  every  duty  assigned 
him  by  the  school  authorities,  he  was  a 
bright  exemplar  for  all.  His  genial  dispo- 
sition and  readiness  in  forwarding  the 
interests  of  public  education  in  the  city  of 
Richmond,  endeared  him  to  the  superin- 
tendent, officials  of  the  school  board,  his 
brother  principals,  and  the  entire  corps  of 
teachers."  He  began  his  career  as  teacher

Rev.  Howard  Williams  Montague,  son  of  Rev.  Philip  [75],  b. 
Oct.,  18 10,  in  Middlesex  Co..  Va. 

He  was  a  distinguished  Baptist  minister  of  King  and  Queen  Co.. 
Va.  Perhaps  the  mantle  of  his  father  had  descended  upon  him.  A 
noble,  consecrated  minister  of  the  Gospel,  his  life  was  truly  a  blame- 
less one.  Zealous  and  devoted  ever  to  the  cause  of  Christ,  no 
obstacle  however  great,  would  prevent  him  from  keeping  an  appoint- 
ment to  preach  the  gospel.  One  of  his  churches  was  forty  miles 
distant  from  his  home  in  Essex  Co.,  and  he  rode  through  winter's 
intense  cold  and  summer's  scorching  heat  to  attend  it.  He  had  a 
number  of  other  churches  during  his  ministry.  One  who  knew  him 
well  says,  "  he  was  one  of  the  loveliest  characters  I  ever  knew,  amiable 
and  affectionate  in  the  family  relation,  earnest,  zealous  and  conscien- 
tious in  the  discharge  of  his  ministerial  duties,  he  was  beloved  and 
esteemed  by  all."  He  d.  June  9.  1876,  at  Fountain  Run.  Essex  Co.,

been  seldom  equalled  and  never  excelled  by  any  member  of  the 
Baptist  denomination  in  the  state  of  Va..  yet  the  brilliant  powers  of

his  mind  were  eclipsed  by  the  qualities  of  his  heart.  While  he  cap- 
tivated by  his  eloquence,  and  convinced  by  his  power  of  argument, 
he  won  all  hearts  by  his  gentleness,  kindness  and  benevolence."  His 
daughter,  Mrs.  M.  Columbia  Montague,  the  devoted  wife,  was  in

a  good  man,  an  earnest,  sincere  Baptist,  and 
Christian,  devoted  to  his  church  and  the 
service  of  God.  Like  his  brother,  he  firmly 
believed  in  the  rights  of  secession  and  imme- 
diately joined  the  istVa.  Reg.  in  the  summer

fervent  piety,  the  recollection  of  which  gave  to 
his  sorrowing  friends  the  best  of  consolation.

were  the  calls  made  on  his  medical  skill  from  neighbors  for  miles 
around  him.  He  was  a  man  of  sound  nerve,  of  sterling  integrity,  of

She  was  a  most  excellent  woman,  well  fitted  to  round  out  her  hus-

evening  meeting,  in  crossing  Moratico  Creek,  which  divides  Richmond 
Co.  from  Lancaster  Co.,  just  north  from  Montague  Island.  They 
were  crossing  the  creek  in  a  boat  which  proved  to  be  too  heavily 
loaded.  The  boat  capsized.  Mr.  Montague  was  an  expert  swimmer 
and  could  have  saved  himself  and  wife,  but  she  frantically  seized 
and  clung  to  him,  rendering  it  impossible  for  him  to  use  his  arms. 
They  were  both  buried  in  the  same  coffin.

Tampa  Bay  to  Xew  Orleans,  he  was  killed 
by  the  fly  wheel  of  the  steamer.  He  was 
observing  its  mechanism,  and  being  naturally 
near-sighted,  stood  too  close  to  it  and  was 
instantly  killed.  He  was  of  a  gay  and  lively 
disposition,  yet  tender  and  gentle-hearted  as 
a  woman.  He  was  greatly  loved  by  his  com- 
rades in  arms  and  deeply  lamented  by  all

ton-Regis is  not  known,  but  a  search  of  parish  records  at  Merrington,and  other  places  round 
about  Lee-Hall  might  bring  good  results,  as  Morton-Regis  seems  to  be  the  key  to  the  pedi-

was  b.  Oct.  7,  1792,  in  Monahan,  Ireland.  She  was  a  member  of 
the  Baptist  church,  and  was  a  Christian  whose  every  thought  and 
word  was  in  harmony  with  her  profession.  She  moved  to  Rome,  Ga., 
when  it  was  a  very  small  village,  and  she  was  the  first  to  organize  a 
Baptist  congregation  in  the  place,  which  has  grown  to  be  a  large  and 
wealthy  church,  a  fine  new  building  has  been  erected  within  the  last 
few  years  on  the  beautiful  site  she  originally  selected  for  the  first 
edifice.  "  She  was  a  woman  of  much  character,  beautiful  in  her 
younger  years,  tall,  with  brown  curly  hair,  blue  eyes,  and  a  foot  fit 
for  a  fairy."  The  testimony  of  Hon.  Alexander  H.  Stevens,  who 
knew  her  well,  was  that  "  she  had  more  good  common  sense  than  any 
woman  I  ever  met."  The  last  few  years  of  her  life  were  sad,  with 
much  sickness  and  sorrow,  which  she  bore  with  great  Christian  forti-

Thomas  Montague,  son  of  William  [115],  b.  Dec.  18,  1795,  in 
Granville  Co.,  N.  C. 

Moved  first  to  Breckinridge  Co.,  Ivy.  ;  thence  to  Maury  Co.,  Tenn. 
From  thence  to  Wayne  Co.,  Tenn.,  where  he  settled  first  on  Hardin's 
Creek,  about  1823,  where  he  resided  until  the  death  of  his  first  wife 
[1833].  He  then  moved  to  Beech  Creek  in  the  same  Co.  He  was 
a  member  of  the  Predestinarian  faction  of  the  Baptist  church  ;  was 
fond  of  discussing  doctrinal  points,  and  one  who  knew  him  well  says 
of  him,  "he  was  the  fairest  man  I  ever  knew  in  a  chimney  corner 
argument."  He  was  a  man  of  strict  honesty,  and  at  his  death  he  is 
said  to  have  owed  but  fifteen  cents,  which  was  for  horse-shoeing. 
He  was  a  just,  honorable  and  upright  man,  a  good  provider  for  his 
family,  with  epicurian  tastes,  his  table  was  always  supplied  with  lux- 
uries. The  "  prohibition."  of  later  times  was  unknown  then,  but  his 
tastes  and  habits  were  under  the  strict  discipline  of  clear  judgment, 
and  he  was  always  a  very  temperate  man.  In  his  prime  he  weighed 
160  lbs.  and  was  remarkable  for  his  agility  and  muscular  strength. 
He  once  jumped  the  chasm  in  the  "  Sand  Knob,"  Ky.,  which  was  only 
twelve  inches  narrower  than  his  best  jump,  and  upon  another  occa- 
sion he  leaped  clear  over  a  pole  which  was  held  upon  the  heads  of 
two  men.  He  died  suddenly  of  heart  disease  at  his  home  in  Wayne 
Co.,  Feb.  1,  i860.  He  was  thoroughly  prepared  for  the  summons  at 
any  time  and  was  expecting  it  in  the  near  future.  He  ;//.  (1),  in  1820,

Susan  Robinson,  alias  Cocker,  and  six  other  persons.  Mr.  William  Mosele}-,  merchant,  and

tion in  the  affairs  of  the  colony,  being  elected  one  of  the  Co.  Commissioners  at  the  same 
session  of  court,  at  which  the  above  land  certificate  was  granted.  We  have  record  of  a  very 
splendid  set  of  jewels  sold  by  him  to  Capt.  Francis  Yardley  in  1652,  and  which  his  wife  Susan 
states  that  she  had  herself  purchased  at  The  Hague.  His  will,  dated  June  29,  proved  Aug.15,

Arthur.  His  widow  could  have  survived  him  but  a  very  brief  period,  as  administration  was 
granted  on  her  estate  to  her  son  William  the  same  day  as  the  probate  of  her  husband's  will. 
This  son,  William  Moseley,  married  Mary,  dau.  and  heiress  of  Capt.  John  Gookin,  [See 
Daniel  Gookines,  Moseley  note.  p.  133.  this  work]  and  died  1672 ;  his  widow  re-married  Lt.-

uous characteristic  in  her  outer  life.  Her  piety  was  of  a  type  too 
seldom  seen  among  the  professed  followers  of  our  Lord.  Though 
for  some  time  prevented  by  failing  health  from  regular  attendance 
upon  public  worship,  she  enjoyed  private  communion  with  her  Saviour 
and  realized  an  ever  increasing  appreciation  of  her  Bible  as  the  "man 
of  her  counsel."  She  united  with  the  Methodist  church  in  early  life 
and  continued  in  its  communion  until  translated  to  the  church 
triumphant  in  Heaven.    "  Blessed  are  the  dead  who  die  in  the  Lord."

Dr.  William  H.  Montague,  son  of  Philip  [151],  b.  1820,  in 
Abbeville  Co.,  S.  C. 

He  was  a  physician  of  great  celebrity  and  skill  for  one  of  his  age. 
Was  small  of  stature,  as  were  all  the  members  of  his  family.  He  d. 
Oct.  8,  1854,  of  yellow  fever  at  Blackville,  S.  C,  preferring  death  at 
his  post  rather  than  to  leave  his  patients,  and  he  remained  adminis- 
tering to  their  wants  until  stricken  down  with  the  fatal  scourge.  He 
was  unmarried.  He  was  a  member  of  the  Presbyterian  church.  The 
Springtown  Troop  (military)  of  which  he  was  a  member,  passed  the 
following  resolutions  at  Blackville,  Oct.  27,  1854: 

"  Whereas  it  has  pleased  Almighty  God  in  the  wise  dispensation 
of  His  Providence  to  remove  from  our  midst  Dr.  William  H.  Monta- 
gue :  His  actions  were  ever  remarkable  for  their  strict  integrity  and 
their  purity  of  motive  ;  as  a  friend  he  was  an  example  that  might  be 
happily  imitated,  and  as  such  he  has  gone  clown  to  the  tomb  with  the 
lamentations  of  his  associates  and  friends,  as  the  best  eulogy  of  his 
character,  regretted  with  agony  and  sorrow;  tears  of  grief  will  bedew 
the  fresh  dust  of  his  new-made  grave,  and  sighs  of  unrestrained 
anguish  usher  his  spirit  to  the  mansions  of  his  God ; — 

'  Where  no  dark  clouds  of  grief  may  lower, 
Or  sadness  break  the  requiem.' 

Therefore  be  it  resolved,  that  in  the  loss  of  Dr.  Wm.  H.  Montague 
the  Springtown  Troop  deeply  sympathize  with  his  afflicted  family  and 
friends.  Resolved,  that  we  wear  the  usual  badge  of  mourning  for  six 
months,  and  a  blank  page  be  dedicated  to  his  memory  on  the  Com- 
pany's book.  Resolved,  that  these  proceedings  be  published  in  the 
Charleston  (S.  C.)  Mercury,  Barnwell  Sentinel,  and  Edisto  Clarion, 
and  a  copy  be  sent  to  the  relatives  of  the  deceased/'

Samuel  J.  Hartzog,  Secretary. 

His  kinsman,  Mr.  Wm.  M.  Reed  of  Tyler,  Texas,  has  sent  the 
following  tribute  to  his  memory  :  "  No  one  could  say  enough  to  cover

even  his  short  stay  on  earth.  He  was  dignified,  accomplished,  the 
soul  of  honor,  intellectual,  most  social  and  genial,  and  profound  in 
his  profession.  Graduated  with  the  highest  honors  of  his  class  in 
both  literary  and  medical  schools,  with  a  large  practice,  widely  known 
and  praised  for  his  ability  and  bravery  for  remaining  at  his  post  during 
the  terrible  scourge  of  yellow  fever  at  Blackville,  S.  C,  where  he 
attended  the  many  who  died  of  that  dreaded  disease  until  he  at  last 
was  stricken  down." 

"  The  tossings  of  the  night, 
The  frettings  of  the  day, 
All  end,  and  like  a  cloud  of  dawn, 

Melt  from  thy  skies  away. 
Soon  shall  the  trump  of  God 

Give  out  the  welcome  sound, 
That  shakes  thy  silent  chamber-walls 
And  breaks  the  turf-sealed  ground."

IN  MEMORIAM. 
[By  her  daughter,  Mrs.  Emma  P.  Brooks.] 

"  A  remarkably  useful  life  bears  record  to  her  worth.  Devoted, 
unselfish  and  true ;  faithful  in  the  discharge  of  the  manifold  duties 
of  wife,  mother,  friend  and  teacher.  God  called  her  to  Him  in  the 
midst  of  usefulness  rarely  paralleled.  As  the  glorious  light  of 
immortality  streams  upon  her  enraptured  vision,  her  dying  lips  gave 
expression  to  her  last  words,  'Praise  the  Lord.'  In  the  beauty  of 
the  early  summer  time  she  has  gone  to  the  unfading  glories  of  the 
Eternal  Summer  Land.  As  dew  drops  flash  back  the  gleaming  sun- 
shine, so  our  hearts  hold  brightest  memories  of  our  dead."

*  The  origin  of  the  name  Robertson  was  from  Robert,  a  Teutonic  personal  name  of  great 
antiquity,  introduced  into  England  about  the  time  of  the  conquest.  The  Robertsons  of 
Struan,  Co.  Perth,  are  unquestionably  one  of  the  oldest  families  in  Scotland,  descending 
both  from  the  MacDonalds,  Lords  of  the  Isles,  and  from  the  ancient  Earls  of  Athol.  The 
surname  is  derived  from  Robert,  son  of  Duncan  [de-Atholia]  who  arrested  the  murderers  of 
James  I.  and  for  that  service  received  a  royal  charter  erecting  his  lands  into  a  free  barony  A. 
D.  1451.     Alexander  his  son  adopted  the  surname  of  Robertson  which  became  persistent. 

t  Proby  was  an  old  English  family.  One  branch  was  long  seated  at  Elton  Hall  in  Co.  of 
Huntingdon.  John  Proby  of  this  family  was  in  1789  Earl  Carysfort  in  the  Peerage  of  Ireland. 
Their  armes  were  "  Erm.  on  a  fess,  gules,  a  lion  passant,  or."  Motto,  "  Manus  haec  inimica 
tyrannis."    This  hand  is  inimical  to  tyrants.

*  Commodore  Arthur  Sinclair,  C.S.N.,  when  war  was  declared,  while  he  greatly  deplored 
it,  did  not  hesitate  but  was  true  to  the  Sinclair  motto,  "  Fight."  He  cheerfully  gave  his  all 
to  the  cause  of  Southern  Independence,  even  his  life.  He  was  in  many  battles,  among  others 
at  New  Orleans  when  it  fell.  He  was  in  command  of  various  vessels,  and  met  his  death  in 
taking  the  "  Lelia,"  a  new  Blockade  Runner  out  of  the  port  of  Liverpool.  He  was  drowned 
in  the  fearful  storm  that  night.  He  was  one  of  the  noblest  men  that  ever  lived,  and  a  true 
and  loyal  southerner.  His  sons  Arthur  and  George  Terry,  were  Lieuts.  on  board  of  the 
Florida  and  Alabama.  Arthur,  Jr.,  was  on  board  the  Merrimac  during  her  fight  with  the 
Monitor.  The  name  Sinclair  is  derived  from  Saint  Clair,  is  of  French  origin,  and  springs 
from  the  great  family  of  De  Sancto  Claro  in  France.  The  noble  Scottish  families  of  this 
surname  are  descended  from  Sir  Wm.  St.  Clair  or  Sinclair,  who  was  Lord  of  Rosslyn  in 
Mid-lothian  by  grant  of  King  Alexander  I.  The  widely-spread  importance  of  this  family  is 
shown  by  the  fact  that  about  twenty  coats  of  arms  are  assigned  to  the  name.  The  arms  of 
Sinclair,  Earl  of  Caithness,  were,  "  Quarterly  first,  azure,  a  ship  at  anchor,  within  a  double 
tressure,  or,  her  oars  erect  in  Saltire  ;  second  and  third,  or,  a  lion  rampant  gules  ;  fourth,  a 
ship  under  sail,  or,  and  over  all  a  cross  engrailed,  dividing  the  four  quarters,  sable."  Crest, 
"on  a  wreath,  a  cock,  proper."  Motto,  "Commit  thy  works  to  God."  William  Sinclair, 
eldest  son  of  the  tenth  Earl  of  Caithness,  d.  at  New  York,  Dec,  1776.  The  Sinclairsin  Eng- 
land have  been  prominent  in  the  Navy.  Sir  John  Gordon  Sinclair  was  rear-admiral  of  the 
blue  in  1849.  Was  also  captain  of  the  port  of  Gibralter,  greatly  distinguished  himself  at 
Morgion  and  again  at  Cassis  in  1813.

and  by  his  upright,  honest,  and  consistent  traits  of  character,  com- 
bined with  true  manly  virtue  and  nobility  of  soul,  endeared  himself 
to  all  around  him  and  won  the  love  and  esteem  of  all  who  knew  him. 
At  the  call  of  his  country  he  left  home  and  friends  and  went  forth  to 
meet  a  soldier's  fate.  Though  he  died  not  upon  the  battle  field,  he 
is  none  the  less  a  martyr  to  his  country's  cause.  For  a  few  short 
weeks  he  lingered,  and  then  calmly  yielded  his  spirit  to  the  God  who 
gave  it.  Kind  messmates  and  friends  watched  beside  his  couch, 
whose  sympathising  hearts  anticipated  his  wants.'' 

The  following  is  from  the  Marion  Commomvealth :  "  It  is  our 
melancholy  duty  to  chronicle  the  death  of  our  esteemed  townsman, 
Thomas  J.  Montague,  who  died  about  two  weeks  ago  at  Rienzi,  Miss. 
He  left  here  in  December  last  with  the  Curry  Dragoons,  and  to  all 
appearances  bid  fair  to  win  many  laurels  on  the  battlefield  and  return 
to  enjoy  the  liberty  his  valor  helped  to  win.  but  before  that  noble 
spirit  had  an  opportunity  of  meeting  the  enemy  in  deadly  conflict  he 
sank  down  in  death.  Dying  in  a  hospital  instead  of  on  the  field  of 
strife  makes  him  no  less  the  hero  or  martyr.  He  was  buried  in  this 
place  on  Saturday  last,  with  military  honors,  and  many  a  heart 
breathed  a  sigh  as  the  arms  sounded  to  him  a  last  farewell ;  many  an 
eye  was  moist  at  the  thought  that  he.  who  was  so  much  beloved  could 
be  seen  no  more.  Tom.  was  a  noble  boy  ;  and  well  may  all  of  us 
sympathize  with  his  widowed  mother,  for  in  him  she  offered  a  sacri- 
fice well  worthy  the  cause  for  which  he  died." 

Two  of  his  comrades.  John  K.  White  and  Amji  Godden.  wrote  to 
his  mother  from  Rienzi :  "  We.  his  comrades,  have  lost  one  of  our 
favorites,  a  comrade  and  brother  in  arms  whom  we  all  loved.  We 
did  all  in  our  power  to  save  him.  Rev.  Mr.  Howell  visited  him 
often.  He  was  cheerful  and  did  not  complain :  he  told  Mr.  Howell 
that  he  had  a  hope  in  Christ  and  was  not  afraid  to  die.  He  gradu- 
ally grew  more  feeble  and  died  imperceptibly,  even  as  a  fire  would 
cease  to  burn.  All  his  intimate  friends  join  with  us  in  tendering  to 
you  and  family  our  earnest  and  heartfelt  sympathy." 

'''  Here  sleeps  the  martyr's  weary  head. 

Here  moulders  holy  dust. 
With  the  wild  wood  moss  overspread, 

Resting  in  silent  trust. 
Rest,  weary  dust,  lie  here  an  hour. 

Ere  long  like  blossom  from  the  sod. 
Thou  shalt  come  forth  a  glorious  flower 

Fit  for  the  eye  of  God."

568. 

Dr.  John  F.  Montague,  son  of  Thomas  [180],  b.  April  8,  1838, 
in  Marion,  Ala. 

He  was  a  surgeon  in  the  confederate  army,  and  died  April  28, 
1863,  at  Tullahoma,  Tenn.  The  following  notice  of  his  death  was 
sent  to  the  Marion  Commonwealth:  "Headquarters,  9th  Ala.  Bat- 
talion, Cummings  Brigade,  Tallahoma,  Tenn.,  May  2,  1863.  Death 
rras  been  in  our  midst  and  taken  from  us  one  of  our  most  worthy 
soldiers,  one  that  every  man  of  oar  battalion  dearly  loved,  and  many 
were  the  tears  of  bitter  grief  shed  over  his  grave.  Dr.  John  F.  Mon- 
tague has  passed  from  our  midst.  He  was  taken  with  congestive 
chill  and  died  on  the  28th  ult.  and  was  buried  the  next  day  with  mil- 
itary honors.  Chaplain  McVay  of  the  38th  performed  the  funeral 
service.  John  was  the  last  son  of  a  widowed  mother,  his  other 
brother  having  fallen  in  this  contest  for  liberty.  We  mourn  his  loss 
for  we  loved  him  much.  His  form  was  the  perfection  of  manly 
beauty,  strength  and  vigor,  combined  with  grace  and  dignity.  His 
high,  pale  forehead  was  shaded  with  locks  of  a  darker  hue.  A  smile 
of  sweetness  and  gentleness  ever  played  over  his  fine  features.  His 
manners  were  pleasing  and  polished,  his  language  chaste,  pure  and 
beautiful,  and  had  ambition  found  a  resting  place  within  his  breast, 
his  were  talents  that  would  have  given  him  a  lofty  standing  among 
the  military  spirits  of  the  age.  But  he  dedicated  his  brilliant  gifts  to 
medicine  and  was  in  the  medical  department  [with  Dr.  Kirksey]  when 
he  died.  He  was  kind  and  courteous  to  all,  and  at  all  hours  of  the 
night  and  day  he  was  ever  ready  to  give  aid  and  comfort  to  the  sick 
soldiers.  He  loved  his  aged  mother  and  his  sisters,  and  often  spoke 
of  them  and  expressed  a  hope  that  he  might  live  to  go  through  this 
contest  and  return  to  them.  But  such  was  not  the  will  of  Providence. 
He  was  no  laggard  in  this  struggle,  but  freely  gave  his  life  as  a  high 
and  holy  sacrifice  upon  our  country's  liberty,  and  fell  at  his  post, 
discharging  his  whole  duty.  Though  he  died  away  from  home,  on 
the  tented  field,  kind  friends  administered  to  his  wants,  and  the  best 
medical  aid  was  given  to  him.  Lieut  A.  S.  Hinton  commanded  the 
funeral  escort,  and  marked  the  place  of  his  last  rest  on  earth.  We 
shed  our  tears  over  his  new-made  grave." 

"  A  sky  without  a  cloud, 

A  sea  without  a  wave, 
These  are  but  shadows  of  thy  rest 
In  this  thy  peaceful  grave.

At  the  death  of  his  father  he  was  called  upon  to  take  charge  of  the 
large  estate  left  by  him  ;  this  and  other  private  interests  demanding 
his  entire  attention,  he  resigned  the  practice  of  his  profession.  He

the  splendid  error  of  excessive  charity  of  feeling  which  was  but 
injustice  to  himself.  Benevolence,  his  weakness,  was  prostituted  to 
base  purposes  by  those  he  thought  worthy  of  his  confidence,  nearly 
sweeping  away  his  splendid  fortune  and  rendering  himself  the  slave 
to  good  intentions.  His  easiness  of  disposition,  always  inclined  to 
right,  sprung  from  his  own  honest  impulses.  He  could  never  con- 
ceive that  the  recipient  of  a  kindness  could  wrong  a  benefactor.  He

retired  to  peaceful  sleep  which  passed  into  the  sleep  of  death.  So 
gentlv  did  the  messenger  of  death  beckon  him  to  the  other  shore, 
there  was  no  struggle  nor  death  agony.  The  deep  sympathy  and 
strong  attachment  of  friends  and  acquantances  was  manifested  by  a 
memorial  seryice,  held  for  him  in  the  Presbyterian  church,  by  a  large 
audience,  on  the  Sunday  eyening  following  his  death.  He  was  a 
christian,  and  soon  to  become  a  member  of  the  Presbyterian  church. 
An  editorial  notice  of  his  death  in  a  Huntsville  paper,  says  of  him : 
••Many  and  long  years  will  come  and  go.  ere  Huntsville  will  again 
know  a  more  noble  gentleman,  and  tears  will  for  a  long  while  come 
unbidden  to  many  eyes  at  the  memory  of  him.  or  the  mention  of  his

George  R.  Montague,  son  of  Dudley  S.  [195],  b.  June  15,  1827, 
in  Bath  Co.,  Va.,  d.  Dec.  31,  1865. 

For  many  years  he  was  Co.  clerk.  At  the  time  of  his  death  he  was 
clerk  of  the  Circuit  Court  for  Putnam  Co.,  recorder  and  clerk  of  the 
Board  of  Supervisors  of  said  Co.  The  following  tribute  to  his  memory 
is  from  the  Charleston  [W.  Va.]  paper  : 

"  Mr.  Montague  removed  with  his  parents  from  Bath  Co.  to  Kana- 
wha Valley  in  1838,  to  what  is  now  Putnam  Co.,  and  it  was  here  that 
he  received  his  education.  During  his  early  manhood  he  was  engaged 
for  some  time  in  the  steamboat  business,  and  afterward  in  mercantile 
pursuits ;  for  both  of  which  he  was  well  qualified  by  his  urbane  and 
courteous  manners,  and  by  the  honest  and  honorable  principles  which 
always  governed  his  conduct.     When  the  war  came,  in  186 1,  he 


*  Received  too  late  to  number.

26l 


promptly  ranged  himself  among  the  friends  of  the  union  ;  and  his 
health  not  permitting  him  to  take  the  field,  he  received  from  Gov. 
Pierpoint,  under  the  re-organized  government  of  Va.,  Sept.  5,  1861, 
the  appointment  of  clerk  of  courts  of  Putnam  Co.,  and  was  elected 
to  the  same  position  by  the  people,  May  28,  1863.  After  the  organi- 
zation of  the  new  state  of  West  Va.  he  was  also  recorder  of  the  Co. 
and  clerk  of  the  board  of  supervisors.  His  official  duties  were 
always  discharged  with  unusual  promptness  and  fidelity,  and  rarely 
does  a  public  officer  receive  as  great  a  share  of  the  confidence  of  the 
people,  as  was  most  deservedly  given  him.  He  was  endowed  with  a 
kind  and  genial  disposition,  a  frank  and  confiding  heart.  Generous 
to  a  fault,  he  gave  according  to  his  ability  to  relieve  the  wants  of  the 
poor,  and  his  ear  was  never  deaf  to  the  appeals  of  charity.  Univer- 
sally beloved,  Mr.  Montague  had  not  perhaps  a  personal  enemy  in 
the  world,  and  his  memory  will  long  be  cherished  by  the  community 
in  which  he  dwelt.  For  several  years  his  health  had  been  delicate, 
but  it  was  only  during  the  last  six  months  of  his  life  that  it  became 
apparent  that  his  days  were  numbered,  and  that  the  fell  scourge — 
consumption- — would  claim  him  among  its  victims.  He  bore  his  long 
and  painful  illness  with  heroic  fortitude,  and  at  last  his  spirit  gently 
passed  away  from  earth  to  seek  its  eternal  home  beyond  the  skies." 

"So  fades  a  summer  cloud  away, 

So  sinks  the  gale,  when  storms  are  o'er, 
So  gently  shuts  the  eye  of  day, 
So  dies  a  wave  along  the  shore."

Thomas  H.  Montague,  son  of  Dudley  S.  [195],  b.  Aug.  15,  1833. 

He  was  pilot  of  the  steamer  "  Fashion,"  and  lost  his  life  at  the 
burning  of  the  vessel  in  1867,  preferring  death  rather  than  desertion 
of  his  post.  This  noble  sacrifice  of  life  to  duty  is  best  told  in  the 
following  poetry,  from  the  Natchez  (Miss.)  Courier,  dedicated  to  his 
memory : 

The  pilot  bravely  holds  the  wheel ; 

Of  flames  beneath  he  hears  the  roar, 
Yet  still  he  guides  her  burning  keel — 

"  I'll  hold  her  till  she  strikes  the  shore." 

Around  him  fly  like  shooting  stars, 

A  thousand  sparks  eddying  soar, 
And  yet  he  stands  mid  falling  spars, 

"  I'll  hold  her  till  she  strikes  the  shore." 

Above  the  din  of  shouts  and  shrieks, 

His  comrade  warns  him  o'er  and  o'er, 
He  calmly  to  that  comrade  speaks 

"  I'll  hold  her  till  she  strikes  the  shore." 

The  goodly  ship's  a  burning  wreck, 

But  she  has  touched  the  shore ; 
Ah  !    Where's  the  hero  of  the  deck  ? 

Alas  !    We'll  see  him  nevermore  ! 

His  gallant  form  is  wrapt  in  flame  : 

Lost  in  the  craft  he  loved  so  well ; 
His  be  the  award,  a  hero's  fame, 

Who  at  the  post  of  duty  fell.

He's  lost.    She  drifts  without  control : 

But  ere  the  bark  went  down. 
Angels,  we  trust,  caught  up  his  soul. 

And  wreathed  it  with  a  martyr's  crown. 

Raise  to  his  memory  the  cenotaph. 

Let  poets  chant  his  praises  o'er. 
And  let  his  words  be  his  epitaph. 

••  I'll  hold  her  till  she  strikes  the  shore."

She  d.  April  20,  1858,  at  Red  House,  West  Va. 

The  following  tribute  to  her  memory  appeared  in  the  Point  Pleasant 
Register  soon  after  her  death  :  "  When  we  first  knew  her.  three 
years  ago,  she  was  a  lively,  sprightly,  intelligent,  amiable  girl,  just 
blooming  into  womanhood,  the  pride  of  her  parents  and  the  delight 
of  her  companions,  and  had  every  appearance  of  living  a  long  life  of 
usefulness  and  pleasure.  But  how  vain  are  all  our  expectations ! 
How  fruitless  all  our  hopes  !  In  a  few  short  months  she  was  attacked 
with  scrofula,  and  from  that  time  until  her  dissolution,  lived  a  lin- 
gering death  ;  yet  during  that  long  period  of  her  sickness  she  bore 
her  afflictions  with  a  fortitude  that  we  never  saw  equalled.  She  was 
remarkable  for  her  industry,  and  during  her  protracted  illness  she  did

not  relax  her  exertions,  as  long  as  her  weak  frame  would  permit  her 
to  do  anything.  But  what  was  of  more  value  than  all,  she  was  a 
christian  in  the  true  sense  of  that  term.  Two  years  previous  to  her 
death  she  made  a  profession  of  religion  and  united  with  the  Metho- 
dist church.  In  her.  the  church  has  lost  one  of  its  brightest 
ornaments." 

Thy  day  has  come,  not  gone, 
Thy  sun  has  risen,  not  set, 
Thy  life  is  now  beyond 
The  reach  of  death  or  change : 
Not  ended  but  begun.*'

Judge  Robert  Latane  Montague,  son  of  Lewis  B.  [324],  b. 
May  23,  18 19,  at  Ellaslee,  Middlesex  Co.,  Va. 

At  the  age  of  sixteen  he  was  a  clerk  for  a  short  time  in  a  country 
store.  In  1838  he  entered  Fleetwood  Academy,  in  King  and  Queen 
Co.,  and  remained  two  sessions.  He  then  studied  law  under  Judge 
Lomax  of  Fredericksburgh.  In  1841  he  entered  William  and  Mary 
College.  Graduated  July  2,  1842,  receiving  the  degree  of  Bachelor 
of  Law.  In  1842  he  took  the  post-graduate  course  of  study  at  Wil- 
liam and  Mary  College.  In  the  Polk  and  Dallas  campaign  of  1844, 
Mr.  Montague  took  an  active  part,  warmly  espousing  the  cause  of  the 
democratic  standard-bearers.  He  acquired  the  reputation  of  being 
one  of  the  most  brilliant  and  polished  speakers  of  his  state.    He  was

several  times  presidential  elector  on  the  democratic  ticket.  He  was 
also  elected  commonwealth  attorney  of  Middlesex  Co.,  which  position 
he  held  for  many  years,  and  until  his  election  as  lieutenant  governor 
of  Virginia,  on  the  ticket  with  Hon.  John  Letcher.  So  great  was  his 
popularity  that  he  led  his  ticket  by  five  thousand  votes.  He  repre- 
sented the  counties  of  Mathews  and  Middlesex  in  the  Legislatures  of 
1 850-1-2.  While  he  was  lieutenant  governor  and  ex-officio  president 
of  the  Va.  senate,  he  was  elected  president  of  the  Va.  convention  of 
1 86 1,  and  was  in  the  chair  when  the  ordinance  of  secession  was 
passed,  thus  presenting  the  rare  spectacle  of  one  man  presiding  over 
two  deliberative  bodies  in  session  at  the  same  time.  Without  his 
solicitation  he  was  chosen  a  member  of  the  executive  council,  which 
had  power  to  organize  the  army  and  make  appointments  to  office. 
He  was  elected  a  member  of  the  Confederate  congress.  In  this  body 
he  was  one  of  the  most  conspicuous  of  the  younger  members.  In 
1872  Gov.  Montague  was  elected  to  the  House  of  Delegates,  from 
Middlesex  Co.,  though  the  county  was  largely  republican.  In  1875 
he  was  elected  Judge  of  the  8th  Judicial  District  of  Va.  In  Decem- 
ber, 1878,  re-elected  for  eight  years,  and  he  was  worthily  filling  this 
position  at  the  time  of  his  death,  which  occurred  March  2,  1880,  at 
Inglewood,  Middlesex  Co.,  Va. 

Judge  Montague  was  adroit  as  a  practitioner  of  law.  As  a  jurist, 
a  popular  speaker,  and  a  debater,  he  was  a  star  of  the  first  magnitude. 
He  was  a  brilliant  orator,  bold,  and  sometimes  almost  violent  in 
advocacy  of  his  convictions,  but  always  courteous  in  his  deportment 
to  his  opponents.  Few  men  ever  enjoyed  more  personal  popularity. 
He  was  an  earnest  christian,  and  a  zealous  member  of  the  Baptist 
church.  He  was  devoted  to  his  church  and  filled  many  positions  of 
honor ;  he  was  often  moderator  of  the  Baptist  Association,  and  for 
many  years  moderator  of  the  Va.  Baptist  General  Association.  He 
was  just,  generous,  kind,  and  devoted  to  his  family.  He  died  sur-

Col,  Edgar  Burwell  Montague,  son  of  Lewis  B.  [324],  b.  Aug. 
2,  1832,  in  Essex  Co.,  Va. 

Educated  at  Va.  Military  Institute,  and  William  and  Mary  College. 
At  the  latter  school  he  took  the  degree  of  Bachelor  of  Law.  He  m., 
Oct.  28,  1858,  at  Nesting,  Middlesex,  Miss  Virginia  Eubank,  dau.  of 
Mr.  Joseph  C.  Eubank,  and  sister  of  the  wife  of  his  brother,  the  late 
Judge  Robert  L.  Montague.  Soon  after  his  marriage  he  purchased 
his  estate,  called  "  Afton,"  in  King  and  Queen  Co.,  where  he  resided 
and  practiced  his  profession,  that  of  law,  until  the  breaking  out  of 
the  war  between  the  states,  when  he  at  once  gave  his  services  to  the 
Confederate  cause,  raised  a  battalion  of  men  and  entered  the  southern 
army  as  Major  of  Montague's  Battalion.  He  commanded  this 
battalion  at  the  battle  of  Bethel,  and  there  acquitted  himself  with 
such  valor,  ability  and  credit  that  he  was  promoted  to  Lieut.  Col.  of 
the  53d  regiment  of  Va.  infantry,  and  afterward  was  again  promoted 
to  Col.  of  the  32d  regiment  of  Va.  infantry.  His  regiment  formed  a 
part  of  Corse's  Brigade,  Pickett's  Division,  [Maj.  Gen.  George  E. 
Pickett  commanding],  first  corps,  army  of  Northern  Va.  As  a  mem- 
ber of  that  famous  division,  Col.  Montague  participated  in  many  of 
the  bloody  battles  of  the  late  war,  and  was  always  found  with  the 
foremost  in  the  heat  and  danger  of  the  fight.  In  his  official  report 
to  Gen.  Lee,  Gen.  Pickett  says,  "  To  the  commanding  officers  of  reg- 
iments, my  thanks  and  those  of  our  state  are  due  for  their  mainte- 
nance of  discipline  in  their  regiments,  their  continual  and  unswerving 
confidence  in  the  cause,  and  their  personal  activity  on  the  many 
battlefields,  in  leading  on  their  men  to  victory,  or  sustaining  them 
under  their  various  hardships.  Such  names  as  those  of  Montague 
[and  others  of  his  officers]  should  not  be  forgotten  in  Virginia's  his- 
tory." Col.  Montague  served  throughout  the  entire  war.  After  the 
surrender  at  Appomattox  he  returned  to  his  home  and  resumed  the 
practice  of  his  profession. 

He  was  a  fine  lawyer,  an  eloquent  debater  and  speaker,  enjoyed

as  lucrative  a  practice  as  his  section  of  the  state  afforded.  He  was 
for  many  years  commonwealth  attorney  for  his  county,  and  always 
filled  the  office  with  ability,  credit  and  justice.  He  was  a  gentleman 
of  the  highest  type  ;  to  a  magnificent  personal  appearance  and  bearing 
he  added  courtly  manners  and  a  delicacy  and  refinement  of  feeling 
that  is  rarely  ever  seen.  He  had  many  warm  friends  and  was  gen- 
erally beloved  by  those  who  knew  him.  After  an  illness  of  about  six 
weeks  he  d.,  Feb.  21,  1885,  at  Afton,  King  and  Queen  Co.,  and  was 
interred  at  Ingle  wood,  Middlesex  Co.,  the  late  home  of  his  brother,

She  m.  (1),  March  19,  1858,  Mr.  Robert  Logan  Fleet,  who  was 
killed  at  the  battle  of  Chancellorsville.  The  following  account  of  his 
death  and  tribute  to  his  memory  was  written  by  Col.  Edgar  B.  Mon- 
tague, and  published  in  the  Richmond  papers  : 

"  Messrs.  Editors : — Allow  me  a  short  space  to  offer  a  tribute  to 
the  memory  of  one  of  the  truest  and  bravest  men  who  has  fallen  in 
this  terrible  struggle,  Lieut.  Robert  Logan  Fleet  of  the  55th  Va. 
Reg't,  who  was  killed  on  the  bloody  field  of  Chancellorsville.  With- 
out waiting  for  place  or  position,  Lieut.  Fleet  entered  the  first  company 
from  his  county,  as  a  private.  He  was  promoted  to  a  Lieut,  on  the 
field  by  his  commanding  officer  for  distinguished  gallantry  at  the 
battle  of  Gaines  Mills,  where  he  received  a  terrible  wound  through 
the  shoulder,  which  for  nearly  nine  months  detained  him  from  his 
command.  Against  the  advice  and  protest  of  his  friends,  and  even 
his  officers,  with  his  right  arm  paralyzed,  and  his  wound  supperating, 
he  reported  for  duty  about  a  month  before  the  fatal  battle.  Lie  fell 
while  leading  his  men  in  one  of  the  charges  of  the  gallant  55th.  Thus 
perished  one  of  the  truest,  noblest,  and  most  unselfish  spirits  in  the 
army.  The  only  son  of  a  widowed  mother,  the  idol  of  his  young- 
wife  and  three  little  children,  respected  and  loved  by  a  large  circle  of 
friends  and  relatives,  his  fate  was  indeed  a  sad  one,  but  yet  the  grief 


316 


DESCENDANTS   OF   PETER  MONTAGUE. 


of  his  widow  and  friends  is  soothed  by  the  reflection  that  he  lived  as 
a  true  Christian  should  live,  and  died  a  martyr  to  his  firm  and  con- 
sistent patriotism." 

"  Another  battle  fought,  and  oh,  not  lost — 
Tells  of  the  ending  of  this  fight  and  thrall, 
Another  ridge  of  time's  lone  moorland  crossed, 
Gives  nearer  prospect  of  the  jasper  wall." 
"  A  heritage  which  death 

Shall  seal  to  thee  for  aye, 
A  resurrection — heritage 

When  all  things  pass  away. 
A  home  of  endless  peace, 

Beyond  these  hills  of  strife  ; 
When  these  old  rocks  give  up  their  dead, 
And  death  shall  end  in  life."

in  most  of  the  battles  fought  by  the  5th  Reg't  of  cavalry  under  Fitz 
Lee  and  Stuart.  Was  at  home  on  a  furlough  at  the  time  of  the  sur-

To  the  above  sketch,  the  compiler  here  adds  the  following  tribute 
to  Mrs.  Mary  Jesse  Daniel.  This  work  will  ever  be  indebted  to  this 
noble  Montague  lady  for  many  records,  and  much  and  valuable 
information  nowhere  else  obtainable.  Her  interest  in  this  great 
work  has  been  indefatigable  and  unceasing,  and  her  aid  cheerfully 
given.  The  help  given  by  her  and  her  noble  daughter,  Miss  Gay 
Montague  Daniel,- — has  rendered  the  work  a  success,  and  came  in  the 
darkest  hour  of  its  compilation.  Without  the  records  of  the  county 
of  Middlesex  this  work  could  not  have  been  written  ;  the  compiler 
could  find  no  one  to  undertake  that  work,  after  a  lengthy  search 
extending  over  nearly  two  years,  and  found  it  impossible  to  go  him- 
self to  search  the  records.  When  he  was  nearly  discouraged,  Mrs. 
Daniel  and  her  dau.  Gay,  came  nobly  to  the  rescue.  By  permission 
of  Mr.  T.  Phil.  Woodworth,  the  Co.  clerk  (now  deceased)  they  were

enabled  to  take  the  old.  moth-eaten,  unindexed  records  from  the 
court  house  at  Saluda,  and  carry  them  to  their  home  at  Church  View, 
often  too.  at  considerable  inconvenience  to  themselves  and  to  Mr. 
Daniel,  by  whose  aid  they  were  obtained.  Here,  at  their  leisure,  they 
brought  to  light  the  ancient  records  which  have  enabled  the  compiler 
to  comiect the  various  branches  with  Peter  Montague  Xo.  1.  Besides 
this  valuable  aid  rendered.  Mrs.  Daniel  has  furnished  many  records 
relating  to  Middlesex  Co.  families,  whose  records  were  hitherto 
obscure  and  difficult  to  obtain.  The  kindest  thanks  of  the  entire 
Montague  family  are  due  to  this  estimable  lady  for  her  labors,  often 
arduous,  in  their  behalf.

hearty  admiration  of  the  entire  Montague  family 
both  now  living  and  of  posterity*  hereafter,  are 
due  to  this  noble  young  lady  for  valuable  service 
rendered  this  work.  The  ancient  records  of  the 
county  dating  back  to  16S0,  were  brought  (as 
stated  above)  from  Saluda  C.  H.  by  her  father, 
who  expected  with  the  aid  of  his  wife  to  copy 
them  for  this  work.  Some  of  these  records  are 
worm-eaten  and  obscure  from  age.  and  it  was 
found  difficult  to  read  them.  Although  obtained 
at  considerable  trouble,  they  bid  fair  to  remain  a 
"  sealed  book  "■  until  Miss  Gay.  coming  in  from 
school,  (though  scarcely  sixteen  years  of  age), 
took  the  matter  in  hand,  successfully  read  and 
copied  them,  and  triumphantly  sent  them  to  the 
compiler.

Andrew  Jackson  Montague,  son  of  Lewis  B.  [324],  b.  July  4, 
1842,  d.  in  Richmond,  July,  1862. 

The  youngest  of  ten  children.  Born  when  his  parents  were  getting 
on  in  life,  he  was  peculiarly  dear.  From  infancy  to  early  manhood 
he  exhibited  the  most  devoted  love  for  those  of  his  own  blood,  while 
he  was  the  idol  of  his  father,  brothers,  and  sister.  His  mother  dying 
when  he  was  only  seven  years  of  age,  strengthened  the  tender  ties. 
He  was  specially  entrusted  to  his  elder  brother  by  his  mother,  who 
nobly  fulfilled  the  trust,  educating  and  treating  him  in  all  respects  as 
a  son.    He  was  at  the  Virginia  Military  Institute  when  the  war  broke

out,  was  for  some  time  at  Lee  Camp,  Richmond,  with  other  cadets, 
drilling  new  companies  in  military  tactics  as  they  were  mustered  in. 
In  the  spring  of  1862,  when  not  quite  eighteen  years  of  age,  he  joined 
Co.  C,  55th  Reg't  Va.  Vols,  and  was  in  the  first  of  the  engagements 
of  the  seven  days'  battles  around  Richmond.  Received  a  slight 
wound  through  the  arm  on  the  second  or  third  day.  The  wound  was 
not  considered  dangerous,  but  in  a  week  typhoid  fever  set  in,  he  was 
dangerously  ill  for  some  days,  grew  worse,  his  brain  became  affected, 
the  doctor  said  from  the  concussion  of  shot  and  shell  in  the  battles 
he  had  passed  through.  In  spite  of  the  tenderest  care  his  young  life 
went  out.  He  was  at  the  home  of  Mr.  Austin  Turner,  where  he 
received  every  attention.  His  brother,  Dr.  L.  B.  Montague,  never 
left  his  side,  every  effort  was  made  to  save  him  that  kindness  and 
care  could ,  suggest,  but  in  vain.  He  had  some  hours  free  from 
delirium,  and  during  that  time  professed  sorrow  for  sin,  and  trust  in 
the  merits  of  a  crucified  Redeemer.  Dr.  Lansing  Burroughs  of  the 
Baptist  church  prayed  with  and  for  him,  also  his  brother  Hon.  Robert 
L.  Montague,  who  with  all  an  elder  brother's  anguish  watched  over 
and  prayed  for  him.  His  last  words  to  his  sister,  as  she  bent  over 
and  kissed  the  dear  lips  soon  to  be  cold  in  death,  were,  "  don't  be 
afraid,  I  am  sure  to  meet  you  there,  yes,  sure  to  meet  you  there."  He 
was  buried  in  the  Shackoe  Hill  burying  ground  at  Richmond, 
July,  1862. 

"Where  the  faded  flower  shall  freshen, — 

Freshen  never  more  to  fade  ; 
Where  the  shaded  sky  shall  brighten, — 

Brighten  never  more  to  shade  : 
Where  the  sun  blaze  never  scorches  ; 

Where  the  star  beams  cease  to  chill : 
Where  no  tempest  stirs  the  echoes 

Of  the  wood,  or  wave,  or  hill : 
Where  the  morn  shall  wake  in  gladness, 

And  the  moon  the  joy  prolong, 
Where  the  daylight  dies  in  fragrance. 

'Mid  the  burst  of  holy  song : 

Brother,  we  shall  meet  and  rest 
'Mid  the  holy  and  the  blest !  "

he  impressed  upon  his  youthful  mind  the  importance  of  growing  up 
in  the  love  and  fear  of  the  God  whom  his  father  worshiped.  The 
lessons  thus  impressed  bore  fruit,  and  the  son  remembers  with  thank-

the  memory  of  his  father  so  early  lost  to  him.

ville,  S.  C.  He  d.  April  19,  1893.  Major  Earle  had  an  unbounded 
love  for  the  Montagues,  one  of  the  dearest  wishes  of  his  heart  was  to 
live  to  see  this  work  printed.  The  work  is  indebted  to  him  for  many 
records,  and  other  information,  on  the  branch  of  Henry  Montague. 
The  following  tribute  to  his  memory  is  taken  from  a  Greenville,  S.  C, 
paper : 

"  In  the  death  of  Major  Henry  Montague  Earle,  another  of  Green- 
ville's oldest  citizens  has  passed  away.  Early  in  life  Mr.  Earle 
removed  to  Greenville  Co.  where  he  has  since  lived,  universally  liked 
and  respected  by  those  with  whom  he  was  thrown.  He  was  deeply 
interested  in  farming,  to  which  pursuit  he  had  devoted  his  whole  life 
and  energies.  Intellectually  active,  he  had  acquired  a  great  deal  by 
experience,  and  his  readiness  in  conversation  combined  with  his 
courteous  and  gentle  manners  made  him  a  pleasant  companion,  while 
his  consistent  life  commended  the  profession  of  religion  he  had  made. 
Although  wide  awake  to  matters  about  him,  his  quiet  tastes  kept  him 
away  from  the  stir  of  public  life,  and  he  never  held  any  public  office. 
So  active  had  been  his  life  and  so  strong  was  his  constitution  until 
within  the  past  few  years  of  his  life,  that  his  more  than  fourscore 
years  seemed  to  sit  very  lightly  upon  him,  and  few  looking  at  him 
would  have  classed  him  among  the  octogenarians.  He  resided  on 
his  plantation,  not  far  from  Greenville,  and  it  was  while  on  a  visit  to 
the  city  that  he  stopped  on  last  Sunday  week  at  the  home  of  his 
daughter,  Mrs.  McAlister.  He  intended  to  remain  there  only  a  few 
hours,  but  feeling  unwell  lay  down  to  rest,  before  returning  to  his 
farm.  But  he  steadily  lost  strength  and  at  noon  on  Wednesday  died 
from  heart  failure." 

On  the  1 8th  of  Feb.,  1893,  only  two  months  before  his  death,  he 
wrote  the  following  to  the  compiler  of  this  work  :  "  My  dear  friend 
and  much  esteemed  relative  ;  I  again  attempt  to  write  you  a  short 
letter.  I  feel  the  despondency  of  age  increasing  so  surely  upon  my 
energies,  and  the  love  of  life  wanes  with  the  lethargy  of  the  mind.  I 
have  passed  my  eighty-fourth  year,  and  still  keep  my  power  to  exer- 
cise on  foot  without  the  use  of  a  walking-cane.  I  do  mount  on  horse- 
back when  the  animal  will  be  still,  though  I  use  a  buggy  when  going 
on  business  for  six  miles  or  more.  In  the  providence  of  God  my 
mind  is  being  gradually  prepared  for  the  final  resignation  of  mortal 
life.  How  much  longer  will  you  be  likely  to  pursue  the  tracing  out 
of  the  Montague  Genealogy  ?     I  do  wish  you  great  success,  and  do

hope  that  you  may  realize  your  fullest  expectations  in  all  you  have 
anticipated  in  this  laudable  undertaking.  I  feel  that  we  are  blood

Lord  God  preserve  and  keep  you  through  all  time  to  come. 

Affectionately, 

Henry  Montague  Earle." 
Soon  after  the  death  of  Mr.  Earle,  his  wife's  health  began  to  fail. 
She  lingered  through  the  summer  and,  though  her  death  was  expected 
she  died  suddenly  on  the  nth  of  December,  1893.

christian  whose  every  thought  and  word  was  in  perfect  harmony  with 
her  profession.  She  was  a  very  lovely  lady,  educated  in  the  best 
schools,  and  highly  accomplished.  In  person  she  was  of  exceeding 
great  beauty.  All  who  are  living  that  remember  her,  say  "  she  had 
the  most  beautiful  face  they  ever  saw.  Her  face  and  her  life,  short 
and  lovely,  reminded  one  of  the  beauty  and  delicate  fragrance  of  a 
violet  one  had  enjoyed  when  young  and  happy  and  the  skies  were 
blue."  Her  health  never  recovered  from  the  shock  of  the  death  of 
her  husband,  as  his  death  from  heart  disease  was  sudden  and  unex- 
pected. Life  had  lost  its  charm  for  her  in  his  death,  and  she  went 
cheerfully  when  the  time  came.    She  d.  Feb.  23,  1863,  in  Rome,  Ga.

Rev.  John  Webb  Montague,  son  of  Thomas  [381],  b.  Nov.  9, 
1823,  in  Wayne  Co.,  Tenn. 

Like  most  boys  raised  on  a  farm  in  those  days,  he  received  only  a 
limited  education.  When  he  grew  up  to  manhood  he  found  a  worthy 
consort  in  the  person  of  Miss  Matilda  Jane  Grimes,  whom  he  m.  Jan. 
27,  1846.  She  was  b.  June  3,  1825,  in  Wayne  Co.  He  made  a  pro- 
fession of  religion  in  early  life,  was  an  active  member  of  Philadelphia 
Baptist  church  (which  he  joined  in  1853)  until  his  death.  He  was  a 
minister  of  the  Missionary  Baptist  church.  When  the  civil  war  came, 
he  went  into  the  Confederate  service  in  the  place  of  a  brother-in-law 
whose  wife  was  very  sick  and  required  his  attention.  He  became  a 
member  of  the  9th  Tenn.  battalion  of  cavalry,  and  at  the  fall  of  Fort 
Donaldson  he  was  captured  and  taken  to  the  prison  of  Camp  Butler, 
at  Alton,  111.,  where  he  died  from  exposure,  May  15  or  16,  1862. 
Thus  ended  the  career  of  one  of  God's  noblemen.  He  was  reconciled 
to  die,  but  expressed  a  regret  that  he  could  not  die  at  home  with  his 
family.  His  widow  married  twice  after  his  death.  She  lived  a  faith- 
ful, consistent,  christian  life.  In  August,  1886,  she  was  stricken 
with  paralysis,  and  d.  Aug.  10,  at  her  home  between  Clifton  and

Had  large  tracts  of  land  known  as  "Dillon's  Country,"  nothing  is  known  of  the  origin  of 
the  name,  it  is  lost  in  antiquity.  The  arms  of  Dillon  of  Devonshire  were,  "  Ar.  on  a  lion 
rampant  between  four  etoiles  issuing  from  as  many  crescents  gu.  a  bar  az."  The  Viscounts 
Dillon  of  Co.  Mayo,  Ireland,  are  said  to  derive  their  origin  from  Lochan,  or  Logan,  son  of 
the  Monarch  O'Neile,  which  Logan  lived  about  the  year  595.  Dilune  or  Delion  signifies 
brave,  valiant.  Henry  Dillon  of  this  family  was  sent  into  Ireland  (1185)  as  secretary  to  John 
Earl  of  Morton.  King  John  granted  him  the  land  called  i4  Dillon's  Country."  The  family 
Arms  were,  "  a  lion  passant  between  three  crescents,  gules." 

t  Moore.  This  name  is  derived  from  a  residence  at  a  boggy  heath  or  moor.  The  medie- 
val forms  are  Atte-Mor  or  More,  De-Mora,  Ad.  Moram,  etc.  Edmondson's  Heraldry  men-

Rev.  John  E.  Montague,  son  of  John  [395],  b.  Oct.  23,  18 17, 
in  Granville  Co.,  N.  C. 

He  was  a  devoted  minister  of  the  Baptist  church,  and  did  much 
valuable  work  for  the  Master,  both  in  Virginia  and  North  Carolina. 
He  was  educated  at  Wake  Forest  College,  N.  C,  and  continued  to  be 
a  close  student  of  the  Bible,  and  other  good  books,  all  his  life.  He 
was  remarkable  for  his  independence,  and  did  not  shrink  to  express 
his  views  on  any  subject,  however  they  might  differ  from  those  of  his 
nearest  and  best  friends.  But  he  was  not  arrogant  or  self-important. 
He  was  a  very  fluent  speaker,  always  stuck  very  closely  to  the  Bible, 
and  interlarded  his  preaching  with  personal  incidents  of  the  sick  and 
dying,  enough  of  which  he  could  easily  gather  together  from  his 
extensive  visiting  of  the  same.  He  loved  to  do  his  duty.  He  never 
missed  an  appointment  when  it  was  in  his  power  to  meet  it.  In 
revival  meetings  few  could  stir  the  people  as  quick  as  he  could.  He 
was  an  earnest,  God-fearing,  Bible  preacher,  always  popular  with  the 
masses.  There  was  a  power  in  the  shake  of  his  hand,  a  warm  chris- 
tian salutation  that  sent  its  influence  all  through  the  body  immediately

and  said  in  unmistakable  accents,  that  there  was  a  man  of  God. 
His  congregations  always  loved  him  very  dearly,  and  whenever  it 
became  necessary  for  him  to  sever  his  connection  with  any  church  as 
pastor,  it  was  hard  to  give  him  up.  He  was  often  called  back  to 
preach  at  funerals,  etc.  He  preached  fourteen  years  at  the  Fork 
church,  some  seven  or  eight  years  at  Musterfield.  and  fifteen  or

River  Bridge,  N.  C.  He  was  a  Confederate  soldier,  member  of  the 
56th  N.  C.  Reg't ;  was  shot  in  the  bowels  June  20,  1864;  d.  June  25, 
having  lain  six  or  eight  hours  on  the  battlefield  where  he  fell,  on  the 
lines  below  Petersburg.  He  was  a  brave  soldier,  a  promising  young 
man,  popular,  not  vain,  but  understood  the  law  of  kindness. 

"  No  sun  had  e'er  dawned  on 

So  fearful  a  day, 
No  trumpet  had  marshalled 

So  dread  an  array. 
As  if  earth  in  her  frenzy 

From  each  region  afar, 
Had  poured  forth  her  nations 

For  the  shock  of  that  war. 
In  the  flush  of  their  manhood, 

In  the  bud  of  their  prime, 
In  veteran  ripeness, — 

The  men  of  each  clime 
Came  thronging  and  rushing, 

Like  rivers  in  flood." 

"  'Tis  first  the  night, — stern  night  of  storm  and  war. 
Long  nights  of  heavy  clouds  ancT  veiled  skies  ; 
Then  the  far  sparkle  of  the  Morning-star, 
That  bids  the  saints  awake,  and  dawn  arise."

"  The  dew-drop  dies  not,  when  it  leaves  the  flower, 
And  passes  upward  on  the  beam  of  morn : 
It  does  but  hide  itself  in  light  on  high, 
To  its  loved  flower  at  twilight  to  return. 

The  fine  gold  has  not  perished,  when  the  flame 

Seizes  upon  it  with  consuming  glow  : 
In  freshened  splendor  it  comes  forth  anew, 

To  sparkle  on  the  monarch's  throne  or  brow. 

Thus  in  the  quiet  joy  of  kindly  trust. 

We  bid  each  parting  saint  a  brief  farewell ; 
Weeping,  yet  smiling,  we  commit  their  dust 

To  the  safe  keeping  of  the  silent  cell."

ing to  rally  his  men,  and  leading  the  charge  he  fell  mortally  wounded

ceived to  be  right.  His  remains  were  taken  to  Charlottesville  and 
interred  in  the  cemetery  there. 

"  Earthquakes,  whirlwinds,  tempests, 

Tear  the  quivering  ground  ; 
Voices,  trumpets,  thunders, 

Fill  the  air  around. 
Roar  of  raging  battle  ; 

Shout,  and  shriek,  and  wail, 
Startle  even  the  bravest, 

Turn  the  fresh  cheek  pale."

"  Peace  !    Earth's  last  battle  has  been  won  ;

The  Prince  of  Peace  ascends  the  throne, 
And  war  has  ceased  from  shore  to  shore."

Earth  take  now  thine  own  !

In  thee  this  seed  is  sown. 
Guard  the  precious  treasure. 

Ever  faithful  tomb  ! 
Keep  it  all  unrirled,

DESCENDANTS   OF   PETER  MONTAGUE. 


1566. 

Emma  Legare  Jones,  dau.  of  Rev.  Samuel  B.,  D.  D.  [521],  b.  Sept, 
1857  ;  m..  Rev.  John  E.  Carlisle  of  the  S.  C.  Methodist  conference, 
and  (1894)  pastor  of  the  Methodist  church  in  Darlington,  S.  C.  She 
d.  Aug.  7,  1894  in  Spartanburg,  S.  C. 

The  Darlington  Herald  ol  Aug.  10,  1894  has  the  following  :  "The 
members  of  the  Methodist  church  and  the  community  generally  were 
very  much  grieved  on  Wednesday  by  the  receipt  of  a  telegram  announc- 
ing the  death  of  this  estimable  lady,  which  sad  event  occurred  in 
Spartanburg  on  Tuesday  night.  About  two  months  ago  she  left 
Darlington  to  spend  the  summer  with  relatives  in  Spartanburg  and 
was  with  them  at  the  time  of  her  death.  About  18  years  ago  she 
married  Rev.  J.  E.  Carlisle,  and  during  all  these  years  she  has  been 
the  counsellor  and  sustainer  of  her  husband,  in  the  arduous  work  of 
the  ministry,  and  met  with  cheerful  and  uncomplaining  spirit  the 
changes  and  vicissitudes  incident  to  the  life  of  an  itinerant  minister. 
She  possessed  a  bright  and  active  mind  and  had  received  a 
thorough  and  careful  education  under  the  guidance  of  her  cultured 
father.  She  was  well  posted  in  literature  and  the  current  questions 
of  the  times,  and  this  combined  with  her  graceful  manners  made  her 
strikingly  entertaining  within  the  social  circle.  She  always  identified 
herself  with  the  people  among  whom  her  husband's  work  lay,  and 
was  universally  popular  with  all  classes  of  people.  At  an  early  age 
she  connected  herself  with  the  church  and  during  all  the  years  of  her 
after  life  illustrated  the  teachings  of  Christianity  both  in  her  walk  and 
conversation.  She  accepted  with  perfect  faith  the  sublime  teachings 
of  Christianity  in  their  truest  and  most  liberal  sense  and  neither  sec- 
tarianism or  bigotry  ever  found  lodgment  in  her  mind.  Our  whole 
community  will  sympathize  most  deeply  with  her  afflicted  family  and 
friends  and  especially  with  the  one  on  whom  the  bereavement  falls  so 
heavily.  The  remains  were  interred  at  Spartanburg  on  Wednesday, 
Aug.  8,  1894."  Just  as  the  above  is  being  printed,  the  sad  news 
reaches  us  of  another  and  deep  affliction  which  has,  in  the  Provi- 
dence of  God  come  to  the  family  of  Mrs.  Carlisle,  by  the  death  of 
her  father,  Rev.  Samuel  B.  Jones,  D.D.,  of  Columbia,  S.  C,  who 
passed  from  earth  to  heaven,  Sept.  1,  1894.  He  had  been  in  feeble 
health  for  several  months,  but  it  was  thought  that  the  bracing  air  of 
the  mountains  at  Saluda,  N.  C,  where  he  w,as  passing  the  summer,

would  restore  him.  He  never  rallied  after  his  daughter's  death  and 
in  less  than  a  month  he  has  followed  her  to  the  mansions  above, 
prepared  for  the  people  of  God.

Lewis  F.  Montague,  son  of  James  T.  [714],  b.  Feb.  10,  1841,  in 
Henry  Co.,  Ky.  He  left  his  home  to  go  to  Leadville,  Col.,  May  10, 
1879  and  nas  never  been  heard  of  since.  It  is  thought  he  was  killed. 
He  served  four  years  and  five  months  in  the  Union  army  in  the  late 
war.  He  m.,  March  16,  i860  in  Jericho,  Henry  Co.,  Ky.,  Miss  Mary 
C.  Williams.  She  was  b.  in  Hendersonsville,  Henry  Co.,  Ky.,  July 
18,  1837.     She  resides  in  Hendersonsville,  one  mile  from  Jericho,  Ky. 


Hampshire  and  Kent,  and  were  also  in  other  counties.  One  of  the  chief  seats  of  the  Cobbs 
was  Ingoldisthorpe  Manor  in  Co.  Norfolk.  This  Manor  has  been  held  by  the  family  of  the 
Cobbs  since  the  time  of  Queen  Elizabeth.  The  beautiful  mansion  house,  which  stands  in  a 
most  inviting  situation,  commanding  the  sea,  and  the  Lincolnshire  coast  is  distinguished  by 
the  name  of  Cobbe  Hall.  This  property  in  1781  was  owned  by  Edward  Cobb,  Esq.,  Collector 
of  the  customs  at  Wisbeck  in  the  isle  of  Ely.  His  ancestor  Martin  Cobb,  Esq.,  purchased  it 
of  Roger  Townsend  in  the  reign  of  Queen  Elizabeth.  In  the  year  1691  there  was  a  Manor 
near  Cobbe  Hall  called  Paradise.  It  is  possible  that  Col.  Richard  Lee  may  have  obtained 
the  names  of  his  estates  in  Va.  from  these  places  especially  as  his  estate  of  "  Cobbs  "  on 
Dividing  Creek,  an  iniet  from  the  Chesapeake  bay  was  in  situation  similar  to  the  English 
Cobbe  Hail,  which  looked  across  a  bay  toward  the  Lincolnshire  coast.  Neither  of  these 
English  Manors  however  were  ever  in  the  Lee  family,  though  it  is  found  that  Margaret  dau. 
of  William  Cobbe  married  Richard  Lee  of  Norwich.  [Dr.  E.  J.  L.,  March,  1893,]  Camden, 
in  his  Brit,  says  the  fishermen  along  the  English  coast  call  a  sheltered  harbor  well  secured 
from  winds  by  rocks  and  lofty  trees,  "the  Cobbe".  Joseph  Cobb  had  a  plantation  at  Eliza- 
beth City,  Va.  in  1624,  his  age  was  25  and  he  came  from  England  in  the  ship  "  Treasoror  "  in 
1613.  His  wife  Elizabeth  Cobb,  age  25,  came  in  the  "  Bone  Bes."  in  1623.  The  Manor  of 
Wood  Hall  in  Sandringham  Norfolk  was  a  very  ancient  seat  of  the  Cobbs,  certainly  dating 
back  to  the  time  of  King  Edward  III.  The  last  of  the  Cobbe  family  in  possession  was 
Jeffrey  Cobbe  son  of  William  and  Mary  Cobbe,  who  was  the  daughter  of  Sir  Henry  Beding- 
field  of  Oxborough.  Jeffrey  Cobbe  married  a  daughter  of  Isaac  Astley  of  Melton  Constable 
and  died  July  14,  1623,  William  Cobbe,  one  of  Jeffrey's  sons,  born  1613,  distinguished  himself 
in  the  civil  war,  being  a  colonel  in  the  army  of  King  Charles  I.  The  arms  of  this  family, 
copied  from  a  brass  plate  in  the  church  of  Sandringham  were  :  "  Per  chevron,  sable  and  gules, 
in  chief,  two  swans  proper,  repectant,  and  in  base  a  herring  Cobb,  naiant,  or."  In  the  year 
1800  there  was  a  mansion  of  the  Cobbs  near  the  village  of  Longdon,  north  of  Lichfield  in 
Stafford,  and  in  the  same  vicinity  was  the  Manor  of  "  Mount  Pleasant  "  which  latter  name 
was  also  the  name  of  another  estate  of  Col.  Richard  Lee  in  Va.  In  this  vicinity  in  Stafford, 
near  the  ruins  of  Chartley  Castle  there  were  in  1690  a  number  of  places  or  manors  evidently 
in  the  Lee  family,  such  as  Leigh,  Lee's  Hill,  Lea,  Lea  Lane,  Lea  Croft,  etc.  These  places 
are  scarcely  twenty  miles  from  Nordley  Regis  in  Shropshire,  said  to  be  an  old  seat  of  the 
Lees.

Edgar  Edmonds  Montague,  son  of  Col.  Edgar  B.  [1102],  b.  Dec. 


*  Mr.  John  Tyler  was  son  of  Mr.  John  H.  Tyler  of  Richmond.  Davis'  Hist,  of  Walling- 
ford.  Conn.,  says  that  John  Tyler  was  in  Wallingford  previous  to  1670.  This  John  Tyler 
was  grandfather  of  John  Tyler  the  preacher,  who  was  b.  1742,  educated  at  Yale,  taking  there 
in  1765  the  degree  of  A.M.  In  1768  he  went  to  London  and  was  ordained  by  Richard  Fennick, 
Bishop  of  London,  to  the  office  of  Priest  in  the  Church  of  England,  returned  the  same  year 
to  Norwich,  Ct.,  where  he  became  Rector  of  Christ  Church.  It  is  said  that  the  original  Tyler 
emigrant  came  from  Devonshire,  Eng.,  of  Welsh  descent,  and  landed  in  Newport,  R.  I.,  in 
16—.  Savage's  Gen'l  Diet,  of  N.  E. 'states  that  John  Tyler  of  Wallingford,  was  son  of 
William  of  Milford,  and  that  William  Tyler  of  Milford  was  from  New  Haven,  1657,  m. 
Abigail,  dau.  of  Roger  Terrell.  Job  Tyler  of  Andover  may  have  had  children  before  the  town 
was  settled,  as  Hope  or  Moses,  and  Dr.  Styles  found  his  name  (though  I  doubt  a  mistake  in 
his  vision)  on  the  roll  of  administrators  at  Aquedneck  or  Portsmouth,  R.  I.,  1639.  Certain 
at  Providence  was  a  widow  Joan  Tyler  in  1638,  at  that  point  called  Tockwotton.  Possibly 
she  was  mother  of  Job,  who  was  b.  1619.  Nathaniel  Tyler  was  at  Lynn  1640.  Peter  Tyler 
was  at  Branford  1668.  Abraham  Tyler  was  at  Haverhill  1640.  George  Tyler  was  at  Branford 
1674,  and  by  wife  Hannah  had  Isaac,  b.  1686;  Samuel,  b.  1685.  By  second  wife  Mary,  had 
John,  b.  1696;  Roger,  b.  1698  ;  Ebenezer,  b.  1703.  Hope  Tyler  was  at  Mendon  1662,  probably 
eldest  son  of  Job,  moved  to  Roxbury,  had  Mathew,  b.  April  9,  1676  ;  John,  b.  167S :  moved  to 
Andover,  where  Hopestill,  perhaps  his  son.  lived  in  1691.  He  there  had  James,  b.  1683.  His 
wife  Mary,  and  two  daus.  were  charged  with  witchcraft,  imprisoned  at  Salem,  but  afterward 
released.

The  printing  press  had  nearly  reached  this  page  of  this  book  when 
the  sad  news  reached  us  that  William  E.  Earle,  the  subject  of  the 
above  sketch,  had  entered  into  rest.  Deeply  religious  he  died  as  he 
had  lived,  a  loyal  gentleman,  a  brave  soldier  of  Christ.  He  was

Washington,  but  was  urged  to  go  to  Portland  where  Mrs.  Earle  was 
visiting  friends.  There  he  became  ill  and  never  rallied.  His  remains 
were  taken  to  Greenville,  S.  C,  where  he  was  born,  and  the  funeral 
was  held  in  Christ  church.  The  court  adjourned  and  the  court  officers 
attended  the  funeral  in  a  body.  A  number  of  the  survivors  of  Earle's 
Battery  were  present  and  for  the  last  time  followed  their  old  com- 
mander as  his  body  was  borne  to  the  grave.  They  expressed  sin- 
cere respect  and  affection  for  his  memory  and  testified  that  he  was  a 
gallant  officer,  fearless  in  battle,  kind,  gentle  and  thoughtful  in  his 
treatment  of  the  men  under  him,  and  that  his  first  thought  was  always 
for  their  comfort  and  welfare.    Mr.  Earle  became  a  republican  soon

of  that  party  until  the  end.  He  was  appointed  by  President  Grant 
assistant  United  States  district  attorney.  He  held  this  place  until 
1878  when  he  resigned.  He  was  appointed  by  the  Gov.  of  S.  C., 
a  commissioner  to  represent  the  State  in  the  claims  against  the  gov- 
ernment for  the  recovery  of  land  seized  and  sold  for  direct  taxes. 
He  was  successful  in  this,  both  in  the  court  of  claims  and  in  the  U. 
S.  supreme  court.  He  became  very  much  interested  also  in  the 
French  spoliation  claims.  In  these  two  causes  he  did  an  enormous 
quantity  of  work  and  accomplished  very  important  results.  His 
death  is  attributed  to  overwork  on  these  cases  and  some  others.

"  Upward  where  the  sky  is  brightest, 
Upward  where  the  blue  is  lightest, 
Now  has  gone  his  longing  soul. 
Far  above  that  arch  of  gladness, 
Far  beyond  these  clouds  of  sadness, 
Are  the  many  mansions  fair. 
Far  from  warring  and  suffering 
In  the  palace  of  the  king, — 
He  has  found  a  mansion  there  ! 
Where  the  glory  brightly  dwelleth, 
Where  the  new  song  sweetly  swelleth, 
And  the  discord  never  comes  ; 
Where  life's  stream  is  ever  laving, 
And  the  palm  is  ever  waving  ; — 
He  has  found  the  home  of  homes."

She  possessed  rare  beauty  and  grace  of  person  and  wonderful 
endowment  of  mind,  added  to  this  was  the  charm  of  a  sweet,  loving 
disposition,  which  gave  her  the  power  of  drawing  around  her  a  large 
circle  of  friends.  By  the  death  of  her  parents  and  only  sister  she 
was  left  alone,  and  was  invited  by  Dr.  Watt  Tyler  of  Warsaw,  Rich- 
mond Co.,  a  nephew  of  ex-President  John  Tyler,  to  make  her  home

church  of  Uniontown.  His  life  throughout  was  marked  with  a  stern 
sense  of  justice  and  a  love  of  truth  and  uprightness.  He  gave  largely 
to  benevolent  and  philanthropic  objects.  The  needy  always  found 
him  a  ready  helper,  and  the  weak  a  strong  defence.  He  lived  largely 
"pro  bono  publico/'  Churches,  schools,  roads,  indeed  everything  of 
interest  to  the  community  were  of  the  first  importance  to  him,  and 
the  whole  community  suffered  at  his  death.  His  wife  was  a  model  of 
industry  and  thrift,  noted  for  fine  housekeeping.  At  the  time  of  her 
marriage  she  was  a  member  of  the  Episcopal  church,  but  upon  going 
to  Ala.  she  united  with  the  Baptist  church  at  Uniontown  of  which 
her  husband  was  a  member  and  she  retained  her  membership  there 
until  her  death.  She  was  active  in  all  of  the  church  work.  She  was 
strongly  opposed  to  the  system  of  slavery  and  gathered  as  many  of 
the  servants  as  would  come,  into  the  large  dining  room  every  Sabbath 
afternoon,  that  she  might  teach  them  the  way  of  eternal  life.  This, 
and  other  missionary  work  among  them,  she  kept  up  as  long  as  her  health 
permitted.  After  her  husband's  death  she  with  her  children  moved 
back  to  Va.  in  July,  1865  and  settled  at  Spencis  Point  on  the  Poto- 
mac river  in  Westmoreland,  a  place  which  her  husband  had  purchased 
before  his  death.  The  trip  was  by  private  conveyance  and  occupied 
seven  weeks.  Here  she  resided  until  her  death  in  June,  1870.  She 
had  lived  a  life  of  holy  consecration  to  the  Lord,  and  self  sacrificing 
devotion  to  her  family.  Many  homes  were  saddened  by  her  death, 
as  she  had  been  an  angel  of  mercy  in  the  broadest  sense.  These 
lines  might  have  been  very  appropriately  written  of  her: 

"  O  star  on  the  breast  of  the  river, 

O  marvel  of  bloom  and  grace. 
Did  you  fall  straight  down  from  heaven. 

Out  of  the  sweetest  place  ? 
Nay !   Nay  !    I  fell  not  out  of  heaven, 

None  gave  me  my  saintly  white, 
It  slowly  grew  from  the  blackness 

Down  in  the  dreary  night. 
White  souls  fall  not.  O  my  poet, 

They  rise  to  the  sweetest  place."

THE  BRANCH  OF  WILLIAM  MONTAGUE, 

SON  OF  PETER  NO.  i. 


SECOND  GENERATION  AND  CHILDREN. 
6. 

William  Montague,  son  of  Peter  [i],  b.  about  1635  to  J^42  iR 
Nansemond  Co.,  Va.  The  record  of  his  brother  Peter  states  that 
Peter  was  certainly  21  years  of  age  when  his  father  died  [1659]  and 
probably  was  21  in  1652.  William  being  younger  would  be  at  least 
21  in  1656  which  places  his  birth  in  1635.  This  is  no  doubt  near 
the  correct  date,  and  is  further  corroborated  by  his  father's  will  which 
makes  an  equal  distribution  of  his  land  between  them  and  immediate 
possession  at  his  death,  only  reserving  the  first  choice  to  Peter  who 
was  the  eldest.  Had  William  been  under  age  in  1659,  the  will  would 
have  held  his  share  in  trust  until  he  had  reached  legal  age.  All  the 
records  of  Nansemond  Co.,  where  he  was  born  have  been  destroyed. 
The  first  mention  of  him  on  any  record,  occurs  in  the  will  of  his 
father  the  emigrant,  [1659].  The  next  mention  of  him,  comes  from 
Essex  Co.  records,  where  under  date  of  1699,  his  son  William  is 
described  as  "  William,  Jr.,  son  of  William,  Sr.  of  Middlesex."  His 
name  appears  on  M.  records  Oct.  7,  1700,  together  with  the  name  of 
his  brother  Peter,  and  fifteen  others  of  the  freeholders  of  Middlesex, 
upon  a  petition  to  the  House  of  Burgesses;  Nov.  4,  1701,  his  name  is 
found  on  court  records,  as  appointing  his  son  William  his  attorney  to 
acknowledge  a  deed  of  gift  of  one  horse  colt  to  Thomas  Montague, 
eldest  son  of  Peter  (the  grandson  of  his  brother  Peter) ;  March 
1,  1702  he  was  one  of  the  administrators  of  the  estate  of  his  bro. 
Peter;  June  10,  1706  hrs  name  is  on  a  deed  of  gift,  (in  Essex  Co.) 
for  land  deeded  by  him  to  his  son  Thomas  and  to  Katherine  the  wife 


BRANCH  OF   HIS  SON  WILLIAM.

of  his  son  Thomas.  The  few  remaining  records  of  Christ  church  do 
not  mention  him,  except  to  record  his  death,  as  follows  :  "  Mr.  Wil- 
liam Montague,  Sr.,  died  the  7th  and  was  buried  the  10th  of  Dec, 
17 13."  His  will  has  been  found,  dated  Oct.  1,  17 13,  proved  June  1, 
1 7 14  and  a  copy  in  full  is  given  below.  In  his  will  he  describes  him- 
self as  u  of  Middlesex.''  All  these  records  agree,  that  he  resided  in 
Middlesex  Co.  from  the  year  1699  to  his  death  17 13.  At  the  date  of 
1700,  he  was  about  65  years  of  age,  his  children  were  grown,  married 
and  settled,  his  wife  appears  to  have  been  deceased,  and  he  was 
residing  on  his  plantation,  on  or  near  Montague  Island,  in  Middlesex. 
How  the  land  on  the  Rappahannock  was  divided  between  these  two 
sons  of  the  emigrant,  there  is  no  way  to  determine,  except  that  Peter 
had  the  first  choice ;  but  ail  records  agree  that  both  Peter  and  Wil- 
liam had  moved  from  Lancaster,  before  the  year  1700  and  were  living 
in  Middlesex,  on  or  near  Montague  island,  which  island  they  owned. 
Such  is  the  tradition,  and  the  records  corroborate  it.  No  record  has 
been  found  which  states  that  they  had  sold  the  homestead  in  Lancas- 
ter where  their  father  died,  all  mention  of  them  however  ceases  on  the 
records  of  Lancaster  in  1668  and  it  seems  safe  to  say  that  they  had 
sold  it.  [The  name  of  Montague  ceases  in  L.  records  in  1668  and  is 
not  again  mentioned  until  the  Hannah  Ball  marriage  in  1727.  The 
earliest  mention  of  the  name  in  Middlesex,  is  in  the  year  1682  which 
seems  to  settle  that  between  1668  and  1682,  these  two  brothers  had 
removed  to  the  south  side  of  the  Rappahannock  river.] 

This  William  Montague  lived  more  than  ten  years  after  the  death 
of  his  brother  Peter.  Peter  left  no  will,  but  it  is  probable  that  in  the 
settlement  of  the  estate,  some  of  the  island  land  came  to  William,  or 
perhaps  it  was  his  by  the  original  division  under  the  will  of  his  father. 
This  land  he  must  have  given  to  his  eldest  son  William,  during  his 
own  life  time,  as  he  leaves  him  none  in  his  will.  Certain  it  is  that 
his  eldest  son  William  owned  500  acres  of  the  island  or  near  it  in 
I733  [see  the  will  of  William  Montague  3170].  He  had  evidently 
provided  for  his  eldest  son  William  before  the  making  of  the  will,  as 
the  will  itself  is  in  favor  of  the  youngest  son  Thomas.  The  wording 
of  the  will  of  Peter  No.  1,  renders  it  certain  that  William  was  not 
married  at  that  time  [1659].  No  record  has  been  found  of  the  date 
of  his  marriage  or  name  of  his  wife,  who  died  before  him  as  she  is

about  1673. 

The  loss  of  records  in  both  Lancaster  and  Middlesex  envelops  his 
childhood  and  youth  in  obscurity.  The  first  record  there  is  of  him 
appears  in  Essex  Co.,  where  he  is  called  William,  Jr.,  son  of  William, 
Sr.,  of  Middlesex  under  date  of  1699  at  which  time  he  was  married 
and  his  father  was  quite  aged  living  near  Montague  island  as  can  be 
seen  in  his  father's  record.  The  following  records,  all  from  Essex 
and  Lancaster,  show  that  from  1699  to  the  time  of  his  death  in  1733 
his  home  was  in  Es.sex.  The  Essex  court  record  of  June  20,  1699, 
has  the  following  ordered  that  the  suit  of  Wm.  Montague  and 
Elizabeth  his  wife  plaintiffs  and  Henry  Webb  and  Katherine  his  wife, 
be  dismissed  for  want  of  prosecution.'1  The  Va.  Land  office,  book 
9,  424  under  date  of  May  24,  1701  grants  him  250  acres  of  land  in 
Essex.  Feb.  10,  1703,  he  sold  to  his  cousin  William  Montague,  son 
of  his  uncle  Peter  Montague,  100  acres  of  land  for  30^  sterling 
[Essex  records].  The  following  is  from  the  records  of  Lancaster  : 
"  A  marriage  bond  Oct.  16,  1727,  William  Montague  and  Hannah 
Ball.  William  Montague  was  living  in  Essex  Co.  and  was  under  age 
as  certificate  from  his  father  William  Montague  was  filed  with  mar-

children  besides  the  one  son  William,  all  record  of  them  is  lost  and 
they  are  supposed  to  have  died  in  infancy  or  youth.  Certainly  none 
of  the  other  Montague  names  that  are  on  the  records  preserved  from 
that  time,  could  have  been  his  children.  His  wife  died  before  him,

His  will  was  made  two  days  before  his  death  from  which  it  is 
inferred  that  he  died  suddenly  from  some  acute  disease.  The  will 
bears  date  Feb.  7,  1720,  proved  May  16,  1721  and  mentions  only  his 
wife  Katharine  and  William  Montague  the  son  of  his  brother  William, 
and  step-son  William  Young  and  step-dau.  Elizabeth  Young. 

The  vestry  book  of  Christ  church  has  this  record  :  "  Thomas  Mon- 
tague, Sr.,  died  Feb.  9,  and  was  buried  Feb.  14,  1720."  From  the 
lapse  of  time  between  his  death  and  his  burial  it  is  thought  that  his 
remains  may  have  been  brought  to  Middlesex,  to  be  laid  by  the  side 
of  his  father  in  the  family  burial  place.  He  left  his  estate  to  William 
[3172]  the  son  of  his  brother  William  Montague.  His  wife  lived  but 
two  months  after  he  was  buried.  She  d.  April  19,  and  was  buried

t  Capt.  Richard  Ball  [the  father  of  Hannah]  was  son  of  William  Ball,  Jr.  His  mother 
was  probably  Miss  Harris  of  "  Bay  View,"  Northumberland  Co.  William,  Jr.,  was  son  of 
Col.  William  Ball,  Sr.,  and  a  brother  of  Joseph  Ball  who  was  the  father  of  Mary,  the  mother 
of  Washington.  Hence  Richard  Ball  and  Mary,  the  mother  of  George  Washington  were 
_first  cousins,  because  their  fathers  were  brothers.  Hannah  [Ball]  Montague  and  Gen. 
Washington  were  second  cousins.  They  were  both  great  grandchildren  of  Col.  William  Ball, 
Sr.  It  is  possible  that  this  Montague  relationship  with  Washington  gave  rise  to  the  tradi- 
tion that  Washington  was  of  Montague  descent.  This  cannot  be  determined  until  the 
maiden  name  of  Mrs.  Mary  Johnson,  who  became  the  mother  of  Mary  Ball,  is  discovered. 
Tradition  says  she  was  a  Montague,  but  no  record  has  been  found  to  support  it.  Ball  was  a 
nickname  of  Baldwin,  a  west  of  England  provincialism  for  bald.  Baldwin  was  from  a  bap- 
tismal name.  Several  chief  tenants  in  Domesday  Book  are  called  Baldwinius  and  Baldvinus.

found  at  the  court  house  of  Lancaster,  and  it  states  that  he  resided 
in  Essex  and  was  under  age.  His  father  was  his  surety  and  certificate 
to  that  effect  was  filed  with  the  marriage  bond.  He  appears  to  have 
been  an  only  child  as  far  as  records  go.  Capt.  Richard  Ball  died 
Oct.  26,  1626  and  had  been  deceased  a  year  when  this  marriage  took 
place.  Hannah  had  received  by  her  father's  will,  the  "  old  Ball  plan- 
tation," which  probably  was  situated  within  a  mile  of  the  present 
court  house,  on  the  opposite  side  of  the  Heathville  road  from  the 
plantation  where  Capt.  R.  Ball  died.  Here  they  probably  removed 
soon  after  their  marriage  and  thus  resided  in  Lancaster,  near  Hannah's 
mother,  Mrs.  Sarah  Bail.  This  plantation  may  have  been  a  part  of 
the  original  plantation  of  his  ancestor  Peter  No.  1,  the  emigrant.  At 
the  time  of  his  marriage  he  owned  an  estate  left  to  him  by  the  will 
of  his  uncle  Thomas  [317 1].  In  the  summer  of  1733  he  came  into 
possession  by  will  of  his  father,  of  500  acres  of  land  at  Montague 
island  in  Middlesex  with  also  considerable  personal  property.  By 
this  will  he  also  held  for  life,  the  plantation  of  his  father  in  Essex 
where  he  was  born  and  raised.  He  also  owned  a  tract  of  land  "on 
the  Dragon."    Thus  he  owned  plantations  in  Lancaster,  Essex  and 

buried  near  his  daughters  Hannah  Montague  and  Sarah  Selden,  half  a  mile  from  Lancaster.

and  his  Lancaster  plantation  at  different  times.  Records  show  that  he

Raleigh  Chinn,  Thomas  Chinn  and  John  Chinn.  In  1728  [probably] 
his  first  child  [a  son  William]  was  born,  and  in  1730  or3i,  his  second 
child  [also  a  son,  Thomas]  was  born  and  in  two  hours  after  this  birth 
his  wife  died  [her  tombstone]  and  he  was  left  a  widower  at  the  early 
age  of  about  24  years.  The  next  mention  there  is  of  him  is  in  his 
father's  will  in  1733,  and  again  in  1739  and  1743  as  vestryman  of  the 
Lancaster  church.  His  wife  Hannah  was  buried  on  the  plantation 
of  her  mother  Mrs.  Sarah  Ball  and  by  the  side  of  her  father,  Capt. 
Richard  Ball.  Her  tombstone  lies  on  the  ground  there  at  this  date 
[1894]  broken  into  fragments  and  the  piece  bearing  the  dates  is  miss- 
ing. There  is  no  record  of  him  after  1743.  It  is  not  known  if  he 
married  again.  No  record  of  his  death,  no  will,  nor  any  appraise- 
ment of  estate  has  been  found  either  upon  Lancaster,  Essex  or  Mid- 
dlesex records.  Perhaps  books  were  carried  off,  from  court  houses 
during  the  late  war,  and  were  lost.  His  father's  will,  renders  it  cer- 
tain that  he  had  two  sons.

He  was  born  probably  on  the  old  Ball  plantation  which  his  mother 
brought  to  his  father  at  the  time  of  their  marriage,  and  this,  may  have 
been  a  part  of  the  estate  of  his  ancestor  Peter  1,  the  emigrant.  The

years  old  his  mother  died,  and  when  he  was  about  five  years  old  his 
grandfather  [William  Montague]  died  leaving  him  a  large  property 
by  his  will  consisting  of  his  grandfather's  plantation  in  Essex  Co., 
and  another  plantation  of  400  acres  at  the  "  Dragon  "  [supposed  also 
to  be  in  Essex],  six  negro  servants  and  all  the  stock  upon  the  Dragon 
plantation,  two  feather  beds,  one  rug,  a  pair  of  blankets,  sheets,  two 
pillows,  curtains  and  valance,  all  the  pewter  and  iron  pots  and  pot- 
racks.  Thus  he  became  a  wealthy  planter  [of  nearly  1000  acres]  at 
the  early  age  of  five  years.  When  he  was  14  years  old  his  estate  was 
further  augmented  by  his  grandmother,  Mrs.  Sarah  Ball,  who  left  him 
one-fifth  of  her  entire  estate.  At  a  later  date  he  must  have  also 
received  a  large  property  by*will  of  his  father  but  as  the  records  are 
lost,  it  cannot  be  enumerated.  He  also  inherited  property  from  his 
mother,  to  what  extent  is  not  known.  L.  records  have  a  deed  in 
1749  from  this  William  Montague  to  George  Haile  for  "  12^  acres  of 
land  which  the  said  William  heired  from  his  mother  who  before  mar- 
riage was  Hanah  Ball  dau.  of  Richard  Ball."  The  word  "heired" 
means  inherited.  Owning  property  both  in  Essex  and  Lancaster,  he 
probably  resided  in  both  Co.s  at  different  times,  and  was  as  much  at 
home  in  one  as  in  the  other.  His  will  is  recorded  in  Lancaster,  but 
both  of  his  daughters  at  their  marriage  are  described  as  "  of  Essex 
Co."  His  eldest  son  was  of  Lancaster  and  his  son  John  was  of 
Essex.  His  Essex  homestead  which  he  received  from  his  grandfather 
has  not  been  located  but  the  compiler  of  this  work  thinks  that  it  may 
have  been  the  same  that  was  known  as  "  Mount  Prospect "  where  his 
son  Capt.  John  Montague  resided  at  a  later  date.

He  was  born  before  March  31.  1733.  because  the  will  of  his  grand- 
father, bearing  that  date,  makes  mention  of  him.  From  some  words 
on  the  tombstone  of  his  mother,  it  is  believed  that  she  died  two  hours

at  the  Dragon,  in  Essex ;  Five  young  negro  servants,  and  the

by  Hon.  Tom  L.  Johnson  of  Cleveland,  Ohio,  M.  C.  Mrs.  Hannah 
Montague  was  a  sister  of  Col.  Robert  Johnson*,  a  prominent  and 
distinguished  pioneer  of  Kentucky,  who  went  from  Orange  Co.,  dur- 
ing the  stormy  period  of  the  Revolution,  [1779].  Descendants  say 
that  Mr.  Montague  and  Col.  Johnson  came  to  Ky.  together  in  1779 
and  brought  their  families.  A  great-grand-dau.  of  Mr.  Montague 
writes,  that  "Mr.  Montague  was  a  gentleman  of  large  property  in  land 
and  servants,  belonging  to  one  of  the  old  time,  wealthy,  aristocratic 
families  of  Va."  On  arriving  in  Ky.  he  settled  first  at  Bryant's 
Station  where  there  was  a  fort.  This  was  a  frontier  post,  five  miles 
north  east  of  Lexington,  and  was  greatly  exposed  to  the  hostilities  of 
the  Indians.  It  was  settled  in  1779  by  the  four  Bryant  brothers,  from 
N.  C.  one  of  whom,  William  Bryant  had  married  a  sister  of  Col. 
Daniel  Boone.  Mr.  Montague  resided  at  Bryant's  Station  a  few 
years  and  then  moved  to  Boone  Co.  and  bought  a  large  tract  of  land  and 
built  a  log  house.  Here  he  resided  until  his  death.  Sometime  after

*The  descendants  of  Thomas  and  Winifred  G.  Montague  have  not  been  found  sufficiently 
to  communicate  with  them  directly.  A  tradition  exists  in  a  branch  of  Middlesex  Montagues 
that  Thomas  Tarplay  Montague  was  the  son  of  an  Englishman.  No  evidence  is  given  to 
support  it.  except  in  the  sense  that  before  1776  all  were  subjects  of  Great  Britain.  Co.  records 
prove  conclusively  that  he  was  a  descendant  of  Peter  No.  1.  The  middle  name  of  Griffin  in 
Mrs.  Montague"s  name  indicates  that  her  mother  was  a  Griffin,  or  that  some  one  of  her 
ancestors  had  married  into  that  family.  The  Griffins  were  an  old  Lancaster  family,  and  the 
Co.  of  Richmond  was  originally  a  part  of  Lancaster.  Charles  Griffin  was  a  missionary 
school-teacher  among  the  Saponi  Indians  in  Nansemond  Co.  in  1728,  "  a  man  of  good  family, 
who  by  the  innocence  of  his  life  and  sweetness  of  his  temper  was  well  qualified  for  that  pious 
undertaking."  He  was  afterward  a  professor  in  William  and  Mary  College.  Col.  Leroy 
Griffin  was  a  justice  for  Richmond  and  Essex  Cos.  from  1680  to  1695.  In  17S6  Cyrus  Griffin 
was  appointed  to  attend  the  Episcopal  convention  held  in  Richmond  City.  In  1743  the 
names  of  Thomas  Griffin  and  William  Montague  both  appear  on  the  same  list  at  the  same 
time,  as  vestrymen  of  Christ  church.  Lancaster  [the  church  on  the  north  bank  of  the  river] . 
This  church  was  a  union  of  the  parish  of  St.  Marys  and  that  of  Christ  church,  and  included 
the  White  Chapel  church  which  was  in  the  parish  of  St.  Marys,  all  located  within  Lancaster, 
on  the  north  bank  of  the  river.  Among  the  old  families  mentioned  by  Bishop  Meade  as 
living  in  Farnham  and  Lunenburg  parishes,  Richmond  Co.,  from  1692  to  1776,  are  the  names 
of  Griffin  and  Tarplay.  The  name  of  Dr.  Thomas  Tarplay,  "a  well  educated  and  highiy 
polished  man.'-'  is  mentioned  in  connection  with  the  Farnham  church.  Richmond  Co.  "John 
Tarplay  was  foreman  of  grand  jury  for  Richmond  Co.  in  May,  1742.  Travers  Tarplay  was 
one  of  the  jurymen,  1739."  [Cal.  Papers,  Vol.  1,  p.  234.]  Col.  John  Tarplay  and  Mrs.  Wini- 
fred G.  Montague  were  both  present  at  the  sale  of  the  personal  estate  of  Col.  James  Montague 
in  1782.  probably  Col.  Tarplay  was  her  father  or  brother.

else  his  wife  moved  there  soon  after  his  death.  No  record  of  his 
death  is  found  but  it  is  believed  that  he  died  soon  after  1784.  Frequent 
mention  is  made  on  court  records  after  that  date,  of  Mrs.  Winifred 
G.  Montague,  but  none  of  her  husband.  He  died  before  1801.

resided  at  Mount  Prospect  in  Essex,  on  the  Rappahannock,  the  house, 
a  large  building,  was  standing  in  1891.  Essex  records  have  a  deed, 
Sept.  18,  1797  for  land  from  John  Montague  and  wife  Mary  of  Essex, 
to  William  Montague  of  Lancaster.  Descendants  say  that  Capt. 
John  and  his  brother  William  were  granted  a  large  tract  of  land  in 
Essex  and  Middlesex.  He  was  called  "  English  John  Montague  " 
either  on  account  of  his  aristocratic  ways  or  to  distinguish  him  from 
other  John  Montagues  living  at  the  same  time.  A  tradition  without 
foundation  says  he  was  an  Englishman.  The  will  of  Mary  Yates 
dated  Jan.  15,  1794  and  recorded  M.  records,  July  22,  1799,  devises 
large  property  to  her  niece  Elizabeth  Stanard  Montague,  dau.  of 
Catherine  Yates,  first  wife  of  John  Montague.  The  executors  of 
Mary  Yates  not  qualifying  it  was  presented  to  court  by  Samuel  Mon-

Montague.  Capt.  Montague  died  and  was  buried  at  Mount  Prospect,

Capt.  William  Montague,  son  of  Capt.  William  [3174],  b.  Jan. 
3,  1774,  in  Lancaster  Co.,  Va.,  where  he  was  raised  and  where  he 
resided  until  some  time  after  his  marriage  and  probably  until  the 
death  of  his  first  wife. 

From  1796  to  1805  he  was  a  lay  delegate  of  Christ  church,  parish 
of  St.  Marys  in  Lancaster.  His  name  is  frequently  on  the  county 
court  records  from  1796  to  1805  as  being  present  at  court  of  quar- 
terly sessions.  "  He  was  one  of  the  sponsors,  at  the  baptism  of 
Henry  Chinn  Downman,  April  9,  1797." — H.  p.  126.  He  studied 
law  and  was  admitted  to  the  bar.  He  also  served  as  a  captain  in  the 
war  of  18 1 2  and  was  stationed  on  the  James  river  below  Richmond. 

He  m.  (1),  March  1,  1801,  by  Rev.  Daniel  McNaughton,  rector  of 
Christ  church,  Lancaster,  at  the  residence  of  her  father,  Frances 
Downman,  dau.  of  Joseph  Ball  Downman*  and  his  wife  Olivia  Payne. 
She  was  b.  Nov.  7,  1782  at  Miles  End,  Middlesex  Co.,  England.  (She 
was  sister  of  Olivia  Downman,  the  wife  of  Joseph  Ball  of  "  Ditchley," — 
H.  p.  123.)  After  her  death  he  m.  (2),  by  Rev.  John  D.  Blair,  Sarah 
Minn  Hughes.  They  were  married  in  old  St.  Johns  Episcopal  church, 
situated  at  25th  andBroad  Sts.,  Richmond.  About  this  time  he  had 
removed  from  Lancaster  to  his  plantation  called  "  Paradise  ,1  in  Hen- 
rico Co.,  three  miles  below  Richmond  where  he  resided  until  his  death 
which  occurred  July  27,  1827. 

She  d.  in  Feb.,  1864  in  Gloucester  Co.,  near  the  town  of  Bote- 
tourt, at  "  Charleys  Hope,  "  the  residence  of  her  son  Charles 
Wortley  Montague,  aged  about  90  years.  A  remarkable  incident  is 
connected  with  her  death.  To  wit,  her  two  sons  Col.  Thomas  Ball 
Montague  and  Major  Charles  Wortley  Montague  were  both  in  service 
in  the  Confederate  army  at  the  time  of  her  death.  The  northern 
army  had  invaded  that  section  of  Virginia,  and  while  her  body  was 
being  conveyed  to  the  family  burying  ground  the  coffin  was  opened 
by  a  squad  of  Union  soldiers  for  the  purpose  of  learning  whether  the 
coffin  contained  ammunition  or  other  valuable  property.  At  least 
this  was  the  only  reason  assigned  by  them.    The  following  letters

was  the  son  or  brother  of  Capt.  Holland  Haynie  and  that  she  had  a 
son  also  named  Holland.  Effort  has  been  made  to  trace  this  Haynie 
family  but  without  success.    See  note  at  Col.  James  Montague  [44].

Thomas  Tarplay  Montague,  son  of  Thomas  [3176],  b.  about 
1777  in  Lancaster  Co.,  Va.;  ;;/.,  Oct.  27,  180 1,  Elizabeth  Montague 
[76]  dau.  of  Col.  Philip  [24].  The  marriage  bond  on  M.  records 
bears  the  above  date.  Samuel  Montague  signed  the  bond  with  Thomas 
T.  It  is  said  that  they  resided  in  Richmond  Co.,  where  their  chil- 
dren were  born,  married  and  lived.  No  trace  of  them  can  be  found 
on  the  Co.  records  of  Richmond,  or  Essex,  or  Middlesex.  Effort  has 
been  made  to  trace  their  children,  but  without  success.  His  wife 
Elizabeth  Montague  died  before  1830.  See  letter  of  Rev.  Philip 
Montague  on  p.  101,  note.  The  family  probably  moved  west  or  south 
and  trace  of  them  is  lost. 

*  Haynie.  On  the  list  of  the  living  in  Va.  1623,  occurs  the  name  of  John  Haynie  at 
Bucke-Rovv,  Elizabeth  City.  On  the  muster  roll  of  1624  is  the  name  of  Elizabeth  Haynie  on 
the  plant,  of  Robert  Thrasher,  Elizabeth  City.  She  came  in  the  "Abigail,"  in  1622.  On  the 
same  plant,  is  the  name  of  John  Haynie,  age  27,  came  in  the  "  Margett  and  John,"  in  1621. 
Richard  Haynie  was  Burgess  in  1697  in  Va.;  he  was  married  at  that  time.  [Cal.  Papers,  Vol.

L.  records  have  a  bill  of  John  M.  Smith  against  Mrs.  Winifred  G. 
Montague  dated  Dec.  25,  1792,  "for  board  of  your  dau.  Winifred 
and  cash  for  Harriet  12s."  A  letter  from  Mrs.  Winifred  G.  Monta- 
gue to  John  M.  Smith  dated  Farnham,  Aug.  5,  1796,  (Richmond  Co. 
in  1732  was  divided  into  two  parishes  Lunenburg  and  North  Farn- 
ham, Hen.  vol.  4  p.  367),  she  mentions  her  dau.  "Winnie."  In 
another  letter  to  the  same,  she  speaks  of  "  sending  '  Winnie  '  down  to 
see  if  she  can  get  anything,"  (collecting  a  debt  is  referred  to).  In  all 
her  letters  to  John  M.  Smith  she  signs  herself  "your  aff.  aunt,"  and 
a  letter  written  by  John  Haynie  to  Mrs.  Winifred  G.  Montague,  he 
addresses  her  as  "  dear  mother."  As  Winifred  is  not  mentioned  in 
the  will  of  her  mother  in  1804,  and  no  record  of  her  found  anywhere 
else,  it  is  supposed  that  she  died  before  1804,  probably  unmarried.

DESCENDANTS  OF  PETER  MONTAGUE. 


This  William  Montague's  father,  (Samuel)  was  a  brother  of  Col. 
James  Montague  [44],  the  distinguished  Va.  magistrate.  This  Wil- 
liam Montague  was  the  founder  of  the  settlement  known  as  Montague 
Post-office  in  Essex  Co.,  Va.  The  place  received  its  name  from  him. 
He  was  a  merchant,  had  a  country  store  there,  and  in  Oct.,  1798  he 
opened  a  tavern  perhaps  the  first  that  was  established  in  the  place, 
using  his  house  for  the  purpose,  (Co.  records).  There  were  so  many 
"  William  Montagues  "  in  Essex,  Middlesex  and  Lancaster,  that  he 
was  always  mentioned,  in  records  and  deeds,  as  "  William  son 
of  Samuel  "  which  establishes  his  identity  beyond  any  and  all  doubt. 
An  agreement  copied  from  Co.  records  between  him  and  his  wife 
Amelia  on  the  one  part,  and  the  three  daus.  of  his  bro.  Samuel 
(deceased)  on  the  other  part,  fully  identifies  him.  After  his  death

being  sick  only  six  hours.  She  was  a  most 
beautiful  girl  and  a  most  lovable  and  amiable 
young  lady.  Her  sudden  death  cast  a  gloom 
over  her  entire  family.  At  one  time  during 
the  late  war,  when  the  Union  soldiers  had 
surrounded  her  father's  house,  she  appeared 
at  the  front  door  and  told  the  officer  that  her 
father  was  not  at  home  but  absent  in  the 
Confederate  army,  and  she  begged  him  to 
leave  them  in  peace.  The  officer  immediately 
withdrew  his  men  and  they  were  not  molested.

Major  Charles  Wortley  Montague,  son  of  Capt.  William  [3 180], 
b.  May  27,  1820,  in  Henrico  Co.,  Va. 

He  was  mustered  into  Confederate  service  May,  1861,  with  rank  of 
Captain,  by  forming  a  company  of  artillery,  but  guns  being  scarce, 
the  company  was  made  one  of  infantry.  He  soon  resigned  his  posi- 
tion as  Capt.  and  was  made  sergeant  of  the  Ordnance  Dept.  at 
Gloucester  Point,  as  aid  to  Col.  Crump,  with  the  rank  of  Major.  On 
the  clay  of  the  battle  of  Seven  Pines  he  resigned  the  above  position, 
and  fought  as  an  independent  in  his  brother's  [T.  B.  M.]  company. 
Afterward  he  joined  Gen.  Fitzhugh  Lee's  cavalry  and  fought  through

many  hard  battles.  It  was  his  delight  to  lead  in  a  charge.  He  was 
captured  once,  but  liberated  very  soon,  through  the  influence  of 
Masonic  brethren.  Soon  after  his  capture,  his  family  were  so  informed 
by  a  Union  officer,  who  was  a  Mason,  who  stated  that  he  would  soon 
be  back  home,  and  that  they  would  see  that  the  family  were  protected. 
His  family  was  not  molested.  He  surrendered  with  Gen.  Robert  E. 
Lee.  Brave  and  good  men  were  both  these  brothers  and  though 
they  lost  their  fortunes  by  the  war,  they  were  never  heard  to  murmur. 
Jn  1869  he  moved  to  Augusta,  Woodruff  Co.,  Arkansas.  He  was  a 
graduate  of  William  and  Mary  college,  and  a  lawyer  by  profession. 
Practiced  in  Gloucester  Co.,  Va.,  prior  to  the  war,  and  in  his  new 
home,  up  to  his  death.  He  was  a  prominent  and  enthusiastic  Mason. 
He  d.  Sept.  9,  1888,  in  Augusta,  Ark.  The  newspaper  of  Augusta 
mentioned  his  death  and  says,  "Thus  another  of  the  oldest  and  most 
highly  respected  citizens  of  our  town,  has  been  called  to  his  last 
home,  leaving  behind  to  mourn  his  loss,  a  loving  wife,  two  sons  and 
three  daughters,  besides  a  host  of  friends.  We  too  will  miss  the

on  the  plantation  known  as  "Glen  Auburn"  in  Gloucester  Co.,  Va. 

His  father  died  wrhen  he  was  four  years  old,  leaving  just  enough 
personal  property  to  pay  the  few  debts  he  owed.  In  early  life  the

*  Caine,  Cane,  Cayne,  Cana,  or  Canus.  A  baptismal  name  in  the  Domesday  of  Sussex, 
and  as  a  surname  is  still  found  in  that  Co.  [Lowers  Surnames.]  The  ancient  arms  of  the 
family  were  "Azure,  an  eagle  displayed,  argent."  The  following  from  Mrs.  Caine  [3376]. 
The  name  has  been  spelled  Cain,  Kane,  and  Cahan.  The  Gaelic  original  of  these  forms  was 
O'Cathain,  the  surname  of  a  chief  family  of  powerful  subdivision  of  the  Kinel  Owen  branch 
of  the  Northern  Ui-Neill  Frasach,  who  was  the  founder  of  the  O'Cahans,  who  became  the 
ruling  race  in  the  present  Co.  of  Londonderry  under  the  supremacy  of  the  kindred  race  of 
O'Neill.  The  chief  of  the  O'Cahans  held  this  rank  down  to  the  plantation  of  Ulster  under 
James  I.  of  England.  From  this  family  Cornelius  Caine  claimed  dec  cent,  who  was  b.  in  Md. 
removed  to  Va.,  commanded  a  company  from  Rockingham  Co.,  1776-S1  [See  Lieut.  Neil

Co.  Afterward  attended  the  University  of  Va.  and  Richmond  college, 
being  a  B.  C.  L.  of  the  latter  institution.  He  was  licensed  to  prac- 
tice law  in  Jan.,  1888,  at  the  early  age  of  21  years  and  began  the 
practice  of  his  profession  in  Richmond,  Va.  In  1891  he  formed  a 
partnership  with  Hon.  James  Lyons,  the  firm  being  Lyons  &  Montague. 
Since  that  time  he  has  taken  Marion  L.  Dawson  into  partnership,  the 
present  firm  being  Montague  &  Dawson.  Mr.  Montague  is  a  young 
gentleman  of  great  promise  and  ability,  and  a  rising  star  in  the  pro- 
fession which  he  has  chosen  ;  m.,  June  26,  1894  in  the  Chapel  of

ton of  the  chair  of  Physics  and  Astronomy  in  Richmond  college. 
Her  mother  is  Mrs.  Nannie  Steger  Winston.  Mrs.  Montague  has 
been  distinguished  for  high  scholarship.  Several  years  ago,  after 
graduating  elsewhere,  she  attended  her  father's  classes  in  physics  at 
the  college  and  passed  all  the  examinations  given  to  other  members 
of  the  classes,  receiving  almost  perfect  marks,  since  then  she  has, 
aided  her  father  in  his  physical  and  astronomical  work,  exhibiting 
great  mathematical  and  scientific  ability.  She  has  also  done  some 
literary  work,  both  in  poetry  and.  prose.  Her  style  as  a  writer  is 
marked  by  the  same  simple  ease  and  grace  which  characterize  her  in. 
the  household  and  in  the  social  circle.

Stephen  Mountague.  The  records  of  Charles  County,  Maryland, 
have  a  deed  dated  1667  for  200  acres  of  land  sold  by  John  Dobson 
to  Stephen  Montague.  The  early  archives  of  the  colony  of  Mary- 
land state  that  one  of  the  delegates  from  Charles  Co.  to  the  Colonial 
General  Assembly  of  1669  was  Mr.  Stephen  Mountague.  In  the 
journal  of  later  proceedings  the  name  "  Mr.  Mountague "  is  twice 
mentioned.  The  Colonial  Council  of  Maryland  on  May  15,  1662, 
ordered  50  pounds  of  tobacco  paid  to  Mr.  Mountague  "for  the  aid 
which  he  rendered  in  seizing  and  securing  the  Barcke  expedition  of 
Piscataway  in  New  England,  for  a  supposed  violation  of  the  act  for 
navigation  and  increase  of  shipping."  No  record  has  been  found 
connecting  this  Stephen  Montague  with  Peter  Montague  or  his  family 
in  England  or  America.  No  records  exist  that  Stephen  ever  married 
or  left  children  or  descendants  in  Maryland  or  elsewhere.  The  name 
"  Stephen  "  does  not  occur  on  the  Boveney  or  Dorney  pedigree  of 
Montague,  nor  has  it  been  found  in  any  of  the  various  Montagu 
pedigrees  connected  with  the  English  peerage,  and  we  must  conclude 
that  he  belonged  to  a  family  unknown  to  us.  His  will  has  been  pre- 
served among  colonial  records  at  Annapolis,  Md.  It  bears  date  June 
21,  1672,  proved  Oct.  4,  1672,  signed  Stephen  Mountague,  witnessed 
by  Nicholas  Solby  and  John  Hanson;  he  wills  that  his  300  acres  of 
land  at  Gingoamuxon,  also  all  his  goods,  cattle  and  chattels  be  sold 
to  pay  his  debts.    He  gives  to  Mary  Emanson  dau.  of  Nicholas  and

The  family  was  to  a  great  extent  scattered.  Those  that  remained  in 
Ulster,  became  tenants  upon  land  that  they  formerly  owned.  Upon 
one  of  these  farms  Charles  was  born.  He  was  educated  for  a  sur-
